    Nice!

    I'd like to fix the prior abstract. Auth and auth upsets me greatly cos we have:

    Authentication & Authorization

    and we call both/either auth. Hence please help me make this a thing:

    AuthENTIcation & AuthORIzation : ENTI & ORI

    ENTI- can you enter, ORI (or ORIZ) what can you do?

    > can this subject perform this action on this object?

    IMHO, the most elegant method to answer this question is capability based access control. If the subject can utter the action, then it can perform it. And then delegation is the transfer of nouns and verbs to perform the utterances.
