This is still under debate, we need some way of representing authz info
but no-one is quite sure what the best way is. The current (1.3)
solution does do pretty much what you suggest, in fact we publish
something like "VOMS:/atlas/Role=Production", as well as the traditional
"VO:atlas" form. One question is whether we would ever need to be able
to support more than one authz scheme for the same resource/service.
