Not to forget the complexity involved in the storage model:

Sorry for the ascii art...hope you have fixed fonts

StorageUser---<GroupMember>--Group------------+
 | |
 | |
 +--<Share>---+ +-<GroupShare>--+
              | |
              | |
              +-StorageObject-+

Share and GroupShare could likely be normalized.
Group and GroupMember would probably be managed by the contacts app.
But the storage app would also need a fast way to get the effective permissions for a user.
