[TYPO3-ttnews] Help for planing feature "Category restriction at be_users/be_groups"

[Ralf Merz]

Hi Georg,

just by reading this, I guess it would be enough to control catagory 
access only for be_groups.
I think it makes no sense to give be_users a group and then edit the 
categories again in be_user.
But to give an answer for question 2, i think be_users selection should 
be used, if it is set.

For question 3: In my opinion the selection should be recursive, 
because mostly people use "Cat 2" only as devider. The behaviour should 
be: if selecting "Cat 2", all sub-cats are selected and i may de-select 
some, if i do not want to show them.

Just my 2 cents.

Regards
Ralf
