Where would is_delegated_auth flag live? In the token itself? It means a more invasive patch, and larger tokens. If outside of the token, it means we need a common library location for it, and none really suits the scoped of this patch.

Deleting a trust from a trust is a logically acceptable activity: it would give you a way to clean up.

Listing trusts from a trust is acceptable. Listing trusts provideds no additional access. It is an activity that may make sense withing some workflows.

Even creating a trust from a trust is logically acceptable, but it requires a lot more checks than can be done in the scope of this patch.

I'll work up an icehouse and havana version of the patch.
