RE: Generic permissions and prohibitions

Re option 2:
- all thinkable actions are permitted by default (this is the opposite to
option 1)
- if this should not be the case for a policy a prohibition with a
to-be-defined action "all actions except those permitted by this policy are
prohibited" needs to be added.

I hope this makes it clear now.

Michael, can you clarify the first part of Option 2?
