KaiGai,

In general, I'm pretty happy with this revision. You still have a
number of places where you have comments about code which does not exist
any more. For example, the comments about the check being removed from
LookupCreationNamespace. I would recommend pulling out those comments
and instead having a comment at the top of the function that says
"namespace creation permission checks are handled in the individual
object ac_*_create() routines".

I don't like having comments that are about code which was removed.
Some of these could be moved to the README if they aren't there already
and they really need to be kept.

There are some other grammatical and spelling issues in the comments,
but I don't believe any of this should hold this patch up from being
ready for committer. At a minimum, I think this really needs to have a
committer comment on it to ensure we're going in the right direction.
I'd be happy to continue working with KaiGai to review his changes going
forward, either with the next set of SE-PG patches or reworking this one
if necessary.

Thanks,

Stephen
