/**
 * This class implements a simple model for named permissions without an
 * associated action list.  That is, either the named permission is granted
 * or it is not.
 *
 * <p>It also supports trailing wildcards to allow the easy granting of
 * permissions in a hierarchical fashion.  (For example, the name "org.gnu.*"
 * might grant all permissions under the "org.gnu" permissions hierarchy).
 * The only valid wildcard character is a '*' which matches anything. It
 * must be the rightmost element in the permission name and must follow a
 * '.' or else the Permission name must consist of only a '*'. Any other
 * occurrence of a '*' is not valid.
 *
 * <p>This class ignores the action list.  Subclasses can choose to implement
 * actions on top of this class if desired.
