Exactly, I don't have to have all global users in the this group. Only
those who are considered as "members" (ie: they have joined the wiki).

Why not make virtual XWikiAllGroup also contain global
users?
We can make:
xwiki.authentication.group.allgroupimplicit=0 -> no
xwiki.authentication.group.allgroupimplicit=1 -> yes, all local users
xwiki.authentication.group.allgroupimplicit=2 -> yes, local and global
Or do you want to have only some global users, not all of them?

Hi developers!
In Workspaces, we used to add global users in the XWikiAllGroup page of a
subwiki to indicate that they are members of that wiki.
Now, we have an option called "user scope", and we can have both global &
local users in a subwiki. That means we have global & local users in
XWikiAllGroup.
Then, it is a problem because it can not work when XWikiAllGroup is a
virtual group [1].
Then, I have proposed to create a new group, called XWikiMemberGroup,
that
hold the members of the subwiki. (Note:
XWikiAllGroup will be a member of
XWikiMemberGroup, in order to say "a local user is a member").
So, I have written a migration (again!) [2], to create the new group with
the current content of XWikiAllGroup. In this migration, I also changes
all
existing rights that occur on XWikiAllGroup to
make them effective for
XWikiMemberGroup. I did not want to duplicate these rights by just adding
the sames for XWikiMemberGroup. I think it is easier for the user to only
take care of the XWikiMemberGroup. But it looks a bit "magical", and some
people don't like it.
I would like to have your opinion.
+1 for adding XWikiMemberGroup and to "migrate" rights (replace all
rights
given to XWikiAllGroup by rights given to
XWikiMemberGroup).
Thanks,
Louis-Marie
