That is viable... but it starts to get to cumbersome. It would be better to let the
Roles nest in a parent child fashion if that were your goal. Then you could work it
like an organizational chart. Collections are much easier to explain to end managers
that the Roles & Groups model below. Just my outlook.

Hmm... We'll need Lee to settle this once and for all, but I thought he meant
something like this:
Roles:
- ArticleReader
- ArticleSearcher
- ArticleWriter
- ArticleEditor
Groups:
- Researchers:
- ArticleReader
- ArticleSearcher
- ArticleAuthors:
- ArticleReader
- ArticleWriter
- ArticleAdmins:
- ArticleReader
- ArticleSearcher
- ArticleWriter
- ArticleEditor
And then a person can get added to groups OR be assigned an individual role...
Dang, that sounds just like permissions to me. Lee, are we totally lost? Or
is it just me?
Crap.

|
| <cfif isArticleReader>
| <cfset hasReadArticlePermission = true>
| <cfset hasSearchArticlePermissioon = true>
| </cfif>
|
| <cfif hasReadArticlePermission>Read this article</cfif>
| <cfif hasSearchArticlePermission>Search this article</cfif>
