WebID deals with authentication. Authorization can be both discretionary, or its rules could be publicly, or semi-publicly available. This would be useful for server to know how to build web pages with links to external resources that may be visible to some but not to others.

The W3C uses RDF ACL

And

There may be other groups that are working on this.
