Can the authorization component of this article be expanded to include information on:

the primitives of the authorization space (permissions, privileges, scopes, principals, groups, roles)
the basics of privilege escalation attacks
more about privilege elevation
when it to use a trusted subsystem (can I get into all the roller coasters if I buy a ticket? Or do some of them have height restrictions?)

This may need to go into a more detailed article on authorization, esp. the potential for privilege escalation attacks.
