Hi devs,
With the intoduction of http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-12171 (Add a script right to
manage script macro execution permissions) in 7.2, we should also think about renaming
what we call "Programming Right" (PR for short) since "Script" and
"Programming" are close. At least to change that in the UI (and possibly even at
API level by introducing new methods ands deprecating old ones).
First step would be to find a new name. I can think of:
* Privilege Right (nice thing is that PR is still valid ;))
http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/privilege "a right, immunity, or benefit
enjoyed only by a person beyond the advantages of most:". This would mean that people
with the Privilege Right would be able to use Privileged APIs.
"Privilege Right" sounds weird to me since a privilege is essentially
a right (as indicated in your definition).
* System Right
* God Right
* Root right (that's essentially what it is when you compare to OS
world even if "root" is a bit technical but it's not the kind of right
you give to anyone either)
* Super Admin right
My preference goes to "Privilege" or "Privileged".
WDYT about
1) Changing the name
2) The new name to use if you agree with 1)
?
Thanks
-Vincent
