Right, well, we certainly debated this at length at CAMP, as I recall. My
point at the time was that if we can't use this infrastructure we're
building to support this use case, we messed up somewhere. It seems to me
that once you stand up middleware on behalf of a "virtual" organization,
it's pretty darn real.

I would like to explore ways to facilitate the provisioning process for
entitlements across origin sites.
