Essentially, although I don't know if you're talking about inheritance
or delegation, our model is based on delegation.  In addition there will
be new component based protocols for controlling traversal, if you want
to get that complex.  During these stages security checks can be made
using the new security api.  this is where we can unify the publisher
and restricted code views on security if your thing is a component.
