You have right, DSpace authorization system is a complete mess.
In case someone face the same problem, we manage to solve the problem of
adding and removing bitstreams with the following steps:
1. The "if" statement in EditItemServlet.java around line 510 is
// only process bitstreams if admin
else if (p.startsWith("bitstream_name")
&& AuthorizeManager.isAdmin(context))
{
and must be
// only process bitstreams if admin
else if (p.startsWith("bitstream_name"))
{
2. In resourcepolicy table the Group that will be able to perform the
deletions or additions must have following rights:
On the Collection of the item it must have READ, WRITE, ADD, REMOVE,
DEFAULT_BITSTREAM_READ, DEFAULT_ITEM_READ, COLLECTION_ADMIN rights.
You can give these rights with "Manage Collection's Policies" page in
Authorization menu.
On the Item it must have WRITE, ADD, REMOVE rights.
You can give these rights with "Advanced/Item Wildcard Policy Admin
Tool" page in Authorization menu.
After adding policies with wildcard policy admin tool is impossible to
see the changes unless you see the resourcepolicy table in the database.
