Description

I'm working on the acl module and realized that acl:originClass (which is used throughout the module) is not defined in the Web Access Control spec, and not in the vocabulary. For the work I'm doing now (adding tests), I'll assume it's a predicate that is used, but I wanted to raise this issue to question whether we should support it at all, given it's lack of formal support.

Research direction

Start in the acl module and review the existing uses of acl:originClass alongside the tests being added. Compare those uses with the Web Access Control spec and its vocabulary, then determine whether support should be retained and formally defined or removed; done means the decision is reflected in the relevant tests and project behavior.
