Doc Text:
Cause: default bootstrap policy allowed basic users to 'get' storage classes but not 'list' them Consequence: basic users could not 'oc get' a specific storage class to get its specification even though they could issue 'oc get storageclass' and receive a list of all storage classes' specifications Fix: modify bootstrap policy Result: basic users can 'oc get' specific storage classes

Yes, the original intent was to be able to let users list storageclass names without seeing details, but as stated above, that can not be accomplished with the API, so at this point, not sure it makes sense to restrict "get"

Comment 3 Matthew Wong 2017-05-11 17:27:38 UTC
OK, I agree it makes sense to let users "get" storage classes, I will open a PR and we can discuss it further there if needed. 

I think there are some implications of this on the UI side as well, if we all agree there's no harm in letting users see storage class details, so that will have to be considered/tracked somewhere.
