Not exactly. You can still use vhosts to implement ACLs. They are just
more coarse grained than realms are.

So on a protocol level there is no read/write differentiation - just a
simple access or deny on the vhost.

If you read the last post on that thread, I did discuss the
possibility of doing more fine grained ACLs in a fashion orthogonal to
the protocol.

HTH,
