Cheers for the feedback.

We are going to introduce a special type of groups where membership
reading would be limited to some conditions but this would not be
relevant to HBAC, at least from my current understanding of the
situation. This is to support organizational groups, not host-based
access rights.

I guess at worst for this we might need a new set of role/privilege/permission that would allow viewing of all memberOf attributes.

There were requests to implement authentication over the D-bus interface

Yeah, that absolutely makes sense.

But I don't see the same issues with an authorization call.

Excellent :)

I would prefer another interface than infopipe (authzpipe?), but in
general, as long as the interface is restricted to authorization and not
authentication, I don't see an inherent issue.

Would the authzpipe be another interface provided by sssd_ifp, or would you want another process (say, sssd_azp) to provide it?

I guess then if I were to start working up some patches, I wouldn't be wasting everyone's time? :)
