Ok, this looks good to me, thanks!

AIUI you have commit rights, so you can push it yourself?


Just one thing, which I believe shouldn't prevent from commiting what
you have already:

> +If one device is covered by more than one \
> +permission scope, only the first permission is applied.";

I'm wondering which way would be more natural to users: first rule wins
versus last rule wins.  I can't immediately think of some example of
unix command that would have the same question, to get inspiration from.
Anybody have an idea?
