As I mentioned here, it would be nice to be able to set the perms per vocabulary as well. I have many vocabs, each with dozens of terms, and it's a pain to have to check each term when I want perms to apply per vocabulary.

I think it's best it the backend remains the same (per term access rules), we just need to have a settings option to set all terms in a vocab to certain permissions more easily.

I'll look into to doing this, both via javascript (selecting checkboxes), and by adding a new tab to the current settings page.

I just wanted to file this here to keep track of the idea...

This is in CVS right now, here's the way it works.

Each vocabulary has a set of permission checkboxes next to it. When you check one and save the permissions, it adds that permission to each category in the vocabulary.

It doesn't require javascript, plus it won't overwrite existing permissions. While this does mean that removing permissions is still tedious, it keeps people from accidentally overwriting their custom permissions.
