Re: Split membergroup manage/assign permissions

Dear SMF developers,

I'd like to suggest to split the current permission setting "Manage and assign membergroups" into several separate permissions, like e.g. done in this unfortunately outdated and apparently no longer supported mod: http://ift.tt/1mJ54R1

The reason for this suggestion is that with the current permission "Manage and assign membergroups" it's impossible to grant permission to assign membergroups to a specific membergroup (e.g. moderators, "junior" admins) without enabling them to create new membergroup where they can get access to each and everything on the forum.

The separation into "Manage membergroups", "Moderate membergroups", "Assign primary membergroups" and "Assign additional membergroups" as done in the above cited mod seems to make much sense, so I'd like to suggest to take a closer look at it and if possible, implement it in SMF 2.1 by default.

Thanks and best regards - Mike
