This would also go well with an idea I had about the current state of
the REST API and encrypted lists. With having decorators like
"@exported_REST", another one could get introduced, something like
"@requires_permission("some.perm.name")" which would introduce
permission-based granularity to the REST API. Then multiple
user:password pairs could be specified in a config with different
permissions and so Mailman could provide different levels of API access
to different apps.

Although, reading Barry's message again, this may not be possible /
maintainable.
