For Authorization, I want each resource to have an owner and a group (like unix/linux), and I want each of these to restrict access based on the http method used to access the resource. For example;

I have the resource article.html
The owner of this resource is “bob”.
The group of this resource is “editors”.
The following methods may be used by the owner on this resource: GET, PUT, DELETE The following methods may be used by members of the group “editors” on this resource: GET, PUT Any user who is not the owner, and not a member of the group “editors” may use the following methods: GET

Normally you'd use <Limit> / <LimitExcept>.  But that only gives you a
two-way distinction, and you need three.

I expect you could apply the universal quick&dirty fix: a RewriteCond
to capture the request method, and dispatch internally into different
protection regimes.

If you use trunk/2.3/2.4, there's a cleaner alternative: use
<If ...> blocks for different request methods.
