Record level ACL

Dear group,
After i used ACL plugin by Alaxos (http://www.alaxos.ch/blaxos/pages/
view/plugin_acl) i wanted to have a ACL at each record level. That is,
a user's record need not be shown to the non-Creator. I started to
understand the concept of record level ACL from this thread.

After downloading those code from those given links about RMAC i
tried to implement it. But I am stuck. So i started to read that code
(behaviour, [path]/app/plugin/permissionable/models/behaviors) i
understood that its the callback function that does all. Especially
the bit checking in _getPermissionQuery function. But I am still not
clear in implementation(user end). So i studied the Auth and ACL
component in core cake (libs) and i saw the _create,_delete (CRUD)
permission is set in Auth. Then I understood that RMAC implementation
is different from Core ACL which uses aros_acos table. My doubt with
the RMAC plugin is this.. Does every record will have an extra entry
in the permission table? Can anyone give an example of this full
working of the RMAC code, with more than two or three model (tables)
with tree level access (roles) including every entry in the permission
table. Can I able to use both the ACL plugin and RMAC plugin together?

I am also planing to have own interface for the ACL, both action
level and record level. I am not sure if this will be continued since
i work for a company and they asked so. It could be dropped any time.
A basic layout as follows in a word docs.

This is very basic and it could be non feasible (funny :D).
