Atlas Ranger Plugin

I notice that according to 
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/RANGER/ATLAS+Plugin

"Note: As part of 0.6 release, all resources of Atlas supports * for 
resources only. More granular level of access control is planned for 
next release.  "

So from this, I can only allow a user/role to
  - have access to ALL entities
OR
  - have access to NO entities

I was slightly confused given the example referred to

" if you have a resource setup as follows: Taxonomy=CompanyName, 
Term=Finance.  and Term level is set to Exclude, then it means that 
means the resource is effectively referring to all Terms of Taxonomy 
CompanyName except the Term Finance."

Has this changed/is change being planned to allow access control to be 
applied to specific entities, types etc ?

Thanks
Nigel.
