>                 Key: SHIRO-438
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SHIRO-438
>             Project: Shiro
>          Issue Type: New Feature
>          Components: Authorization (access control) 
>    Affects Versions: 1.3.0
>            Reporter: picpoc
>            Priority: Minor
>              Labels: features, patch
>         Attachments: wildcardpermission-any.patch

> Attached is a proposal patch to add another special token in the WildcardPermission, the any token '?'.
> When granting the any token on a permission level, it behaves exactly as the wildcard, and implies everything:
> any -> any
> any -> wildcard
> any -> literals
> When querying the any token on a permission level, it is implied by everything:
> any -> any
> wildcard -> any
> literals -> any
> Thus, it is quite similar to say: i don't care about the detail of this level, it's fine if the user is granted something on it. Typical use case is when using shiro permission to perform some fined-grained access control.
> For instance to give read access on newsletter 13 to anyone who has been granted the access to read, edit or delete it. Instead of checking for:
>     newsletter:view:13 or newsletter:edit:13 or newsletter:delete:13
> we can simply check for:
>     newsletter:?:13
