slide.data is used at startup to init slide's base datas.
Base permissions may be initialized here, but you can change permissions
by using security helper.

It is possible :

Object              Subject    Action        Inheritable Negative

# Grant base permissions to allow users to go through /, /files and
   /files/rawpages nodes :

/                   users      /actions/read false       false

/files              users      /actions/read false       false

# this one in heritable
/files/rawpages     users      /actions/read true        false

# Forbid users to go through /files/rawpages/pet
/files/rawpages/pet users      /actions/read false       true

# Allow group pet to go through /files/rawpages/pet
/files/rawpages/pet /users/pet /actions/read true        false

But as you can see, it is not very smart.

A smarter way would be to change your files tree to make it reflect the
permissions :

Files for all users at /files/users
Files only for group pet at /files/pet

Permissions becomes :
/                   users      /actions/read false       false
/files              users      /actions/read false       false
/files/users        users      /actions/read true        false
/files/pet          /users/pet /actions/read true        false

use security helper ...

using security helper ...

Inheritable means permission entry for /files/foo will apply to
/files/foo children.

When negative is set to false, the entry allow something, when it is set
to true, the entry deny something
