i can't see the problem about that. you can manage your users using a DB and keep there the permissions they could have, and create or erase users without problems. you just have to manage a "working index" field for each user with repositories' ids he can access. or u can create several indexes and a users solr index with a multi-valued field with the indexes the user can access.
if then u want to turn a private repository into public u just have to change the permissions field in your DB or users' index.
