> The permissions UI on the resource page is confusing.
> You can't both allow and deny the same action for the same user/role, so the allow/deny checkboxes shouldn't be checkable at the same time.  We should at least fix this.
> The UI could be improved as well - I think it would be easier and clearer to do it more like the Windows permissions dialog (I'll include a screenshot).  There could be a list box of users/roles for which permissions are defined (you differentiate users and roles with an icon, or with color), then when you select one of those, you see allow/deny checkboxes for each of the active permissions.  To add permissions, you just add the user or role to the list of principals, then select permissions and click "apply".
> This would make the UI a lot more compact, and I think clearer.
