The core issue is blocked on UX concerns, I think there is a place for this module until core gets consensus on the direction.

I will try and carve out some time for it.

I've written some code that adds permissions for editing block content - e.g 'edit own|any {type} block content' and 'delete own|any {type} block content' and 'create {type} block content'.

You can find it here http://github.com/larowlan/block_access

Feedback welcome.
