|As part of the work on consent frameworks, is there a proposal

Though it is not stated yet on the site, in the XML-CPDL it is presumed
that a good implementation would be able to produce a comprehensive
XML-CPD from the perspective of any SYSTEM in the network including all
of the inherited policy elements.

This may take a few extra elements to iron out, or at least some
understanding of the securities required in the scope of such a system,
but one can fairly easliy conjecture that in a hierarchcally organized
network or CPDs an administrator could "dump" a comprehensive CPD for
the system, and presumably limit the scope of that document to the
perspecitive of one or more "leaf" SYSTEMs.

ie:

Get policies through

Border MTA,
Domain x MTA/MDA,
User y MUA

With a little bit of tweaking and security work one might expect that
User y would also be able to request the same document.
