Unless you need to fetch an object out of the database in order to get
its project id, and you are not currently doing that, policy enforcement
as currently implemented should be OK.
On the quota API, we might acutally need to rethink this; the role
that user gets that allows them to set quota should not be on the
project itself, but on the containing project. That information might
not yet be made available.
What makes quota's different than other things like this is that a quota
is not something managed *by* the project but instead something external
managed *on* the project.

ordinarily the rule should be something like
"quota_admin_rule": "(role:quota_admin or role.admin) and project_id:%(project_id)s"
But that means that the user would have the quota_admin on the project
itself. That is improperly scoped; if I am an admin on that project, I
should not be able to set quota on that project. The rule should be:
"quota_admin_rule": " parent.project_id:%(project_id)s and (role:admin or role:quota_admin)",
I would prefer:
quota_admin_role: "(role:admin or role:quota_admin)"
quota_scope: " parent.project_id:%(project_id)s"
"compute_extension:quotas:update": "rule:quota_scope and rule:quota_admin_role",
Knowing that a deployer should be able to update the role portion, but not the scope
