[Typo3-dev] Creating BE-groups in other pages?

[Troels Kjær Rasmussen]

Hi Stig and others.

I did a modification like this once, in order to seperate multisites in one 
typo install. Turned out though, that all through out the code, typo checks 
for usergroup which are stored in pid=0 - I agree this should really be 
altered in forthcoming versions of typo.
My suggestion would be to make a extra field in usergroups table with a 
default setting to the current domain. then a seperate backendmodule, which 
handles usergroups/roles depending on the stored domain. - a bit like the 
task>action>create BE user does.
