Marc Horowitz:
Does net-* imply that anyone w/ kerberos tickets for any realm can
zlocate, but people w/ no tickets cannot, or does it imply that anyone
can zlocate? If the former is the case, I recommend that world-visible
and world-announced be implemented, as many sites lack kerberos, and
even at sites with kerberos, some accounts (e.g. root) don't
get tickets.
I believe the intention was to make it Kerberos-only. I don't
remember if a world-* exposure was considered or why it was discarded
if it was. Either way, since net-* hasn't really been implemented, it
could be made to have this behavior quite easily.
