Is security really a part of an object's interface?
Maybe. Are examples? Also maybe. It's documentation, so specific systems that use interfaces may want to be able to extend the kinds of information they can associate with interface elements.
I thought this was more of an implementation thing.
These are good questions, I think these also have a great effect on the Zope 3 story. BTW, the whole idea of extensible meta-data on an interface element came from reading the Zope 3 story so far, and seeing the examples that include security assertions in an interface. Amos and I discussed it a bit and that's where the proposal came from. -Michel
