A use case that I wish authorization service providers would talk more about is support for "list" queries e.g. What resources of type foo can the user read?

In really simple cases you may model this as a one-shot check on a logical collection resource e.g. If I have an organization, and an organization owns many repositories, I may check for action:read on resource:/organizations/:id/repositories. It's very limiting though. What if I want to list all repositories across all organizations I have access to? What if I have multiple levels I want to cut across? Do I need to do all the sub-queries and aggregations myself? Do I need to do a one-shot check on every potential resource? What if the answer is "no" for every one, and I end up doing a table scan of the entire DB just to produce an empty result set? etc.
