The Chatterblock install does add the new rights to the ROOT group - both for admin and user. This is fine .. but then modifying any other CORE GL group may not be what all GL admin's want.
I offerred this feature in the FileMgmt Plugin Admin - to update the "Logged-in Users" group. IMHO, the Group Editor should allow this operation.
