[gollem] SQL Permissioning

[Michael Varghese]

>From what you said, this is how I'm understanding the horde permissioning
API should be used within gollem.  Basically before the backend is used, the
horde permissioning API will be used to check and/or write permissions.  If
this is not what you meant, could you please explain a little more?

|VFS|    |FTP|    |SQL|


Only problem I see with this, is a possible conflict with the OS permissions
and the horde permissioing API in the VFS and FTP.  My plan is to return an
error if there is a conflict.

Also, it would be nice to get some ideas of how to display this in gollem in
the file listing.  For right now, I'll try to figure something out and
implement it.

Simple: have a backend configuration option to turn on Horde API
permissioning. If it's on, assume that files (local filesystem or ftp) are
all accessible to the horde system, and enforce permissions in the API from
there.
