[Bug 1816115] [NEW] RFE: Unified Delegation

 

Public bug reported:

Both assignments and trusts serve a single purpose, to delegate roles on
a resource (e.g., system, domain, project) to the actor (e.g., user or
group).

This RFE proposes a new delegation model containing the following
information:

 - trustee (user or group)
 - roles to be delegated
 - resource (domain or project)
 - usage restrictions
 - source of delegation - actor, who delegates the scope

A valid delegation must be auditable. To allow this, keystone must
maintain chain consistency and do the right thing when a chain of
delegation is broken. A valid delegation must be optionally restricted
so that it can be used for a defined workflow and nothing more.

** Affects: keystone
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
