I believe the top most parent pages can be used to create separate spaces with different access-rights. For example you can create a parent space 'Docs', and make it public, and another space 'Private-Docs' (at the same level as 'Docs') change its access rights and use it as a private space among your group.

No, access rights are not propagated from parents to children.
Personally, I use parent pages as a navigation aid: I changed the
header template to show links to .. > great-grandparent > grandparent
parent > current page - a bit like breadcrumbs. This is useful in the absence of backlinks. I'm sure there are other uses too.

Hello,
I'm trying to figure out the purpose of "parent" pages in XWiki. What can they be used for? If I set access rights on a page, do they trickle down to the child pages?
Thanks! -jeff
