[xwiki-devs] [VOTE] Should "delete" rights be considered at the document level?

Rights have different scopes in XWiki. Administration rights can only be set on a space or wiki level, and any "admin" right set on a document alone will be silently ignored. Programming rights are only considered when set on the xwiki:XWiki.XWikiPreferences document, being ignored in any other virtual wiki and at the space or document level. Delete rights are a bit special as well. By default, the creator of a document has delete rights on that document. Unlike the other rights which default to true when no right is set, this one defaults to false. So, by default, when no "delete" rights are set on the document/space/wiki, only the creator of a document and administrators are allowed to delete it. Should we allow setting the delete right at the document level? Personally, I'd say no, since it's a rare requirement for a non-creator to be able to delete just one document. Space-level rights should be enough, IMO. -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu/
