Aserto, the developer API for permissions and RBAC, is open to all
RBAC is simple to get started with, but indeed pretty limited. We tend to use the term because it's more recognizable than ABAC or ReBAC.
The {subject,relation,object} tuples do provide a convenient way to express an ACL-based system.
Most real-world systems we've encountered tend to have a combination of user-centric and resource-centric aspects to them. With an ABAC-style policy, you can easily enforce relationships like "user X can edit objects in project Y, and can read objects in project Z". In fact, the Aserto policy for Aserto [1] uses this style of authorization, without going "full-tuple".
In fact, for many use-cases, the prospect of creating an ACL for every resource feels like a management nightmare for the folks we've talked to, and they typically have a "resource group" construct or hierarchy that they want to treat the same from an authorization perspective.
Finally, in addition to the user model, Aserto has a resource model, and we're exploring evolving it more towards the tuple approach.
