[drupal-devel] Proposal: node access system change

Hi!

Create an access module which:

1) Creates a vocabulary that has all node types and required.
2) Stores (tid, uid, view, update, delete) for every user.

No DISTINCT is needed because for every node-user pair we have _exactly_  
one line in access.

How 2) is calculated is absolutely up to contrib modules.

While access table will have (number of terms * number of users) lines, my  
gut instict says that this method would be still a lot faster than  
DISTINCTing.

Regards

NK
