Emmanuel Lecharny commented on DIRSERVER-606:
---------------------------------------------

regarding your proposal :

a) Yeah, we can do that. This is for RC2, and its better to have something =
that works, even if you can read your password, than something that is badl=
y broken.

a-2) I agree with "minimal built-in rules". I used legacy, because it was s=
omething which will be removed soon. I don't know when, may be in 1.1 or in=
1.0

b) Yes, we have to update the doc. Feel free to ask Alex about the intrica=
cy of ACI usage with the newer AuthorizationService. As he wrote the code, =
he is the one who know it the best. We sure need this doco if we want users=
not to be puzzled as we are...

Password things : I'm not very confortable with it. I don't like the fact f=
or instance that I can read my passwords in Firefox. The problem is if you =
can do that, then you will have to be parano=C3=AFd : each time you go to =
have a copy, lock your computer... I don't see any occasion where clear pa=
ssword need to be shown to the user, even if the files that contains the en=
tries is not crypted (eh eh, another improvment ...). Well, this is another=
problem, and we can fill a JIRA for that, too
