In my deployment where this is crucial information for the owner, this
will certainly be “admin_or_owner”. The question is now what is the
general feeling about the default value in policy.json and should it
just be as agreed in spec or should it be changed still.

The host state is NOT something that a regular cloud user should be able to query, IMHO. Only admins should be able to see anything about the underlying compute hardware.

Exposing hardware information and statuses out through the REST API is a bad leak of implementation.

Best,
