The security model is actually quite crude as write permissions are
database-wide.  Read permissions can be per-branch within a database;
see "Network Service Revisited" in the doc.

To complement the security model, there is also a trust model.  You
can set up a per-user filter in your ~/.monotonerc that will "hide"
all revisions you don't trust.  See "Trust Evaluation Hooks" in the
manual.
