Dear Cloves,

Many thanks for your email. However, if we change the authorization logic
of OpenERP, will it be acceptable to OpenERP SA or to community. Does it
make a business case, in other words, will this change will be acceptable
to OpenERP partners and does this thing has some market value or business
need?

I understand that in the presence of auth_openid, this thing might not be
that useful especially in the authentication part and Authorization will
need smart changes in the ORM.

Regards,
