   I reverted to examine things a bit more.
   
   I think groups should still work since the complete role list is constructed 
with their content in getPrincipal, however it also means things are very 
static: even if you take out a user from the admin group (for example), it will 
stay there until its session ends, or if you add a new role to a "manager" 
group, then it will take effect "eventually" and break things in the meantime. 
So it doesn't seem to me the "liveness" of the feature is so "undocumented": it 
should really be supported otherwise its design doesn't make much sense.
