A proper permissions system would be a big improvement for Home Assistant. It would be great to be able to set access rules per user and entity.

Unfortunately it’s a commonly request thing but it hasn’t gained much traction with the devs.

I have a feeling it's because most are single, living alone, in a basement programming. This is a joke as it's the only way I can rationalize it because if they had kids they would understand you don't want your kids turning on your bedroom lights in the middle of the night.
