Re: [Cosmo][Proposal] (only) 2 Tickets per Collection

Hi Bobby,

We don't currently have end-user UI to revoke tickets. For the  
Desktop, the way you deal with the use case your describing is to  
unpublish a collection, republish it and hand out new tickets.

We could add a 'Generate new pair of URLs' button to the Web UI so  
that Hub-only users could do the same.

In the meantime, the proposal is to keep the end-user mental model  
re: tickets as simple as possible and save our energy for  
implementing real ACLs :)
