Some helpful things, for multiplayer servers would be:

Permission to delete own objects, but not other's objects
Permission to shoot biters, but not other players.
Permission to block shooting "objects" or buildings.
Mine trees/ore but not other objects, except own... if set in other permissions?
Permission to set own combinators, but not other's combinators.

I have a script on my server that keeps players in probation for a bit after they connect... helps with griefing... but if these options existed, i could make it a two or three-tier system.

Thanks for your time ... and thanks for all the amazing work on 0.15 and the patches for it!

This isn't likely to happen. Adding that level of logic would require a complete re-work of the games actions to know if something should be allowed.

The system we have now is incredibly easy on the game to implement: all of the checks are done in 1 place and don't have any impact on game performance. The level of checks you suggest would have a measurable impact on game performance even when not using it - which isn't acceptable.
