[TYPO3] Complete page tree browsing for BE users

[Alex Heizer]

Hi,

You can do this with the Access module and when you set permissions 
there are 3 rows, Owner, Group and Everybody. Set your permissions for 
each group so that the correct groups can edit only their pages. But for 
all pages, set the "Show page" checkbox for Everybody. Make sure to set 
the DB mount in the group setup for all groups to show the entire page 
tree, not just one section. When a user logs in they will see the entire 
page tree, but will only be able to edit the pages that are given 
permissions to their specific pages from the Access module, but since 
each user is part of "Everybody" they will be able to see all the pages 
and choose them when linking to them.
