Yes this is exactly what I think is wrong.
Whoever has the right to modify rights should see all rights. There shouldn't be a
notion of advanced or not because additional rights are *not* advanced stuff. Actually to
give an example, the programming right itself could be considered advanced while a new
right such as "ability to post messages in a forum" would be a basic right.

The reason I mention this is because the first column says type and then you have
"users" and "groups" and not just "users". It's for
consistency and I think from a user POV they're both different things.

Well groups are also users at the end, but why not... Hi Caty and all,

I like it.
One question: Why does it say on Rights51Space for the view right that
"Allowed only for evalica" when view right is also allowed for all users in
the Admin group?
Other questions:
* Why does that second column says "Users"? Shouldn't it be "Users
and
Groups"?
* Why does the
extended rights view is called "advanced"? For me it's not
related to advanced or not advanced. It's just a folded view and a full
view. A right contributed by some extension might be as important as one of
the default rights.
Well, this is a point of view. The basic interface allow managing commons
rights, and will probably be the only view allowed for users that have not
their profile set to "Advanced" (like what is done for the edit menu, which
is only shown to advanced users) Right interface is complex, but access to it is also
possible for simple
editors not only for admins. Those only need to manage read/write access to
their page, and those will not understand the ins and outs of the extended
rights. This is mainly why we see this as 2 different view of the same
stuff: a basic view, and an advance view.
You have a similar behavior in the right management interface of Windows
ACLs.
Note that in basic view, you have a summary icon (currently a lock, but this
should be improved) that shows if there is some advanced rights locally set.
The tooltips for this icon list the rights locally set and their allowance,
but does not allow changing them (in the sample, the allowance is not shown,
this is probably a mistake)
