            Description

            Reference this forum post: http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php?topic=27647

            This improvement would allow developers of CiviCRM module extensions to define module-specific permissions which site admins could then assign to users or roles of their choice. The use case is analogous to Drupal's hook_permission(), except that this would work in CiviCRM module extensions and thus conceivably be supported in any of CiviCRM's supported CMSs.
