Rights Types

Rights text color has 3 states:

on Click
on Hover

Changing Rights

Apply rights

Visualization mode: basic / advanced

we could even limit access to
advanced mode to advanced users, like what we do with the edit menu

summary view present the common rights
(V/C/E/D/A/(R/P)) using icons, and a last icon would be used to mention
there is more special rights either inherited, allowed or denied
This is a signal that extended
rights are in use

Icons to determine the state of the right

Other (extended) rights states

Changing common rights would be allowed in collapsed mode and expanded
mode, but changing special rights would only be allowed in expanded view

that only "advanced user" (those marked so in their profile),
has access to the expanded view.

Basic Mode
putting the information in the tooltip regarding the origin of
inheritance

Advanced Mode
displayed simultaneously in a column.
what inheritance has been
overwritten, both in terms of allowance and origin

the collapsed view is great to see changes up in the table, where you don't care the advanced status of those rights.  

Filters

pagination and filters + sorting

Rows could be expanded individually or globally so if you want a more
detailled information, you may reach it either for a single user or all at
once.
