Security

Does write access imply read access to an app?

Explorer

Say for some app "foo" the default.meta file would look like this:

// Application-level permissions:

[]
access = read : [ ], write : [ super_manager ]

Is an user with role "super_manager" able to see the app "foo"?

Yes, that is correct. You can't modify if you can see it.
