> Support for read/write of restrictions on the ACE has not yet been implemented in the sling jackrabbit.accessmanager REST operations (and elsewhere). 
>  
> However it looks like adding support for read/write of ACE restrictions would not be too difficult and it looks like it could be useful to the community.
>  
> It looks like changes would be needed in a few bundles, specifically these:
>  
> 1. org.apache.sling.jcr.base
>     a) Changes to the AccessControlUtil addEntry/replaceAccessControlEntry methods to support passing in and processing of restrictions
> 2. org.apache.sling.jcr.jackrabbit.accessmanager
>     a) ModifyAce - changes to process posted "restriction" parameters to be set
>     b) GetAcl/GetEffectiveAcl servlets - changes to return the restriction values in the returned JSON
>     c) PrivilegesInfo - add methods to read the declared restrictions to be used from scripts who are interested in such things
> 3. org.apache.sling.jcr.contentloader
>     a) Changes to the ContentCreator and JsonReader to support reading restrictions from the JSON and applying them while loading content into the repository
> 4. Plus some automated tests and updated documentation...
>  
> SLING-6422 appears to have already added support for setting restrictions for the repoinit style of ACE initialization
