Yup. thought about that as I was heading to bed last night. It does
need to be fixed.

AFAICT yes. I haven't tried setting a property restricted search
permission.  I tested with "Search" on the msg class. Not "Search" on
id, content, and author props of the msg class.

IIUC I can not use a check function in my permission definition. If I
do the search property will be dropped. If I can Search the msg class
but a View check function denies me view permission on the message
search return, I do not see the issue associated with the message in
the rest output. I claim this is fine.

Also did I miss docs on the transitive filtering in rest? I'll check
the rest.txt doc and if it's not documented, I'll add it along with
mentioning the Search perms.
