> If a session (without rep:modifyAccessControl) removes a node with a rep:policy subnode and then recreates it within the same save (without the rep:policy subnode) the commit diff will mistake the action for the removal of the ACL, which this session is not authorised to do.
> If the session is saved prior to recreating the node, both saves (after remove and after recreate) will succeed.
> From discussion with angela:
> {quote}
> the diff mechanism used within Root.commit cannot distinguish between the removal of a policy or the replace of the access controlled node with one that doesn't have the policy set. within that diff it looks like the removal of the policy node
