      Periodically a new SERVER ticket pops up where fuzz testing has messed up internal namespace state via drop/rename/etc.

      We should explore creating a new auth role/permission for internal namespaces – so that downstream products can still modify internal collections as necessary – and labeling internal namespaces such that they can be identified as such.

      Perhaps we can add a tag/field to NamespaceString for internal collection identification. And then create a list of commands (maybe via a test) that are not allowed to modify internal collections.
