How to query Cell level Security in 11g AW

Question

Are there any views/tables that we might be able to use to query the Security settings in 11g AW?
In AWM 11g we have the ability to grant users/groups security at a cell level, with this functionality there is no need for us to maintain the PERMIT_WRITE program to manage Write access to users. I could not find any document that states how we can manage/view the security outside the AWM tool.

For Oracle 11.1, there is a dba-level view called
DBA_XDS_INSTANCE_SETS which provides the data security definitions
for both rdbms table-based and olap dimension/cube-based data security
documents. The actual definition of data security is stored in the XML DB
repository under the XDB schema.
SQL> desc dba_xds_instance_sets
Name Type
SCHEMA_NAME VARCHAR2(30)
OBJECT_NAME VARCHAR2(30)
INSTANCE_SET VARCHAR2(30)
DESCRIPTION VARCHAR2(4000)
STATIC VARCHAR2(5)
EVAL_RULE VARCHAR2(4000)
ACLIDS SYS.XMLTYPE
There is no way to actually manage the data security documents outside of
AWM for 11.1 in terms of creating/editting/deleting the data security documents
at least none that is documented.
Here is an example of what the DBA_XDS_INSTANCE_SETS view returns:
SQL> select * from dba_xds_instance_sets;
SCHEMA_NAME OBJECT_NAME INSTANCE_SET
DESCRIPTION
STATI
EVAL_RULE

<aclids xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/xs">
<aclid>4C96964E68CC309FE040578C550414E2</aclid>
</aclids>
GLOBAL TIME policy1
false
GLOBAL."TIME".DIM_KEY IN ('186', '176', '133', '134', '135', '177', '136', '137', '138')
<aclids xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/xs">
<aclid>4C96964E68CF309FE040578C550414E2</aclid>
</aclids>
Have you created data security in AWM on dimensions/cubes in 11.1?
Any feedback about your experiences with AWM around data security would
be welcome.
