Permission? Now, I'm just a bit confused, as are likely all the readers
here who did not hear your talk yesterday. Where does this *node* get
created? It is a general purpose metadata node covering some particular
information resource? If so, why permission here? If not, then I must
assume that this node is created at runtime during user query session. Say
what?
