Are you going to differentiate at all between "knowledge of" and "access" in 
this feature?

If "knowledge of" is important, then I would have thought that to make a top-
level object like a distro or project private then you need all of its 
components to be private.  For example, below I've listed all the tables that 
have a FK to distribution - wouldn't you need to make all of these objects 
private before you can have a truly private distro?

Apologies if I am way off track here, I am happy to be corrected on what your 
aim is.

Cheers.
