I think Rights is a cross cutting concern that spans across both  
Users and Documents (and possibly other stuff too). I would  
definitely see it as a component in itself and not inside either User  
nor Documents.

In this way it's nicely decoupled and could be implemented in  
different manner in the future: using a rule engine, using AOP, etc.

Thanks
