Validate syncgroup spec (e.g. prefixes) before joining #876

Open asadovsky opened 8 years ago

@ivanpi-mtv and @bprosnitz reported this issue as part of the Syncbase usability fixit.

It seems to me (Adam) that when an application joins a syncgroup, it would typically have a specific expectation of what data will be stored within this syncgroup (e.g. game or presentation data), how the ACLs will be configured on data within this syncgroup, and so forth.

Perhaps the concern here is specific to apps where users directly control the ACLs on data within the syncgroup, e.g. file manager? Or perhaps the concern is about malicious actors? @ivanpi-mtv or @bprosnitz, care to elaborate?

Assigning to myself for tracking. @ivanpi-mtv or @bprosnitz, could you elaborate on the concern?
