My objection to this approach is that it moves the burden of knowing the
hierarchy on the policy writer. With "ancestors" bag, one only need to
know a single unique label for the resource, not its place in hierarchy
(nor all its possible places in hierarchy, as in the case of the bag
resource-id value)
Other issue is that it doess put the burden on dealing with constructing
the proper identifiers on the application, not on the authorization
system.
I understand that it is a rather useful case, but as it is less generic,
I would suggest specifying it as a profile, or recommendation, rather
then the standard approach.
> a. Standard URI syntax for hierarchical resources that are not
XML documents.
