Grouper: About Implied Privileges

Privileges can imply other privileges, meaning that some privileges are supersets of other privileges. As an example, If you have ADMIN privileges on a folder, you can CREATE objects in that folder. Or if you can UPDATE a group's memberships, you can OPTIN or OPTOUT yourself to the group.
