Assigning policies on the fly in a session

Heya all,
I'd like an anonymous user to get a temporary window to read a file on my site. I believe the most elegant way to do it is to temporarily 'give' the user a policy which is saved in his session.

Any thought/ideas/helpful comments?

Thanks a lot,
Clemens

You could make a module in an extension which switches eZ publish user for that user when accessed. (Or even a template operator)

Policies of the current user are cached inside the AccessArray session variable, so you can change that on the fly.

Interesting approach... Can you post your solution when it's ready? :)
