[TYPO3-50-general] Roles and ACLs in Phoenix

[Jacob Floyd]

I'm looking into roles and acls in Phoenix. Here's what I've found:

The Epic for user management:
http://jira.phoenix.typo3.org:8080/browse/PHX-7

Some changes related to the security:

Why do I care about user accounts? For the project I'm working on, user 
accounts is the practically the last feature I require before I can switch 
from v4 to Phoenix. I'm ok with being a guinea pig and using bleeding-edge 
software.
At first blush, I need a way to let users authenticate, and then restrict 
their access to certain branches of the site based on their 
user-groups/roles (a la FE users in v4). Next, I'll want to give some users 
editing rights, also based on their role (a la BE users). The FE users 
equivalent is most important to me.

I'm looking forward to meeting you guys at T3CON in June, and I'm looking 
forward to the birth of the phoenix.

Cheers,
Jacob Floyd
