Description
First, thanks for all the effort everyone has been putting into Dataverse. It is nice to see its progress and increased adoption.
With an object store system, one typically have access control already in place at the object level. Can this be utilized in Dataverse? E.g. say that a user makes an API request to fetch a dataset. The user is allowed if the right credentials from the object store system is in place, otherwise some sensible messages are returned etc. Same goes for data entry and search etc. In practice the authentication system of Dataverse is then somewhat bypassed (except possibly when one also want to limit the use of the frontend).
