Regarding you're Plugin, for non database based models using a database could
be a problem :). But i don't care about them :). just kidding. Anyway, i'm
wondering if you cached a hash of {Class=> [actions,action2...], } (the first
time you authorized) in the user session would that eliminate worries of
performance? Then authorize would automatically update the cache if the user
permissions change. Maybe still a database hit everytime but just a simple
check of a flag. I don't know.
