> The motivation of promoting AccessControlList to be a public API is to facilitate the users to programmatically parse or construct an ACL string. A typical use case may be the timeline domain, where we have the client lib to accept strings complied with ACL string format to define the authorized readers/writers. It will be more convenient and less buggy if users can compose this string with AccessControlList.
