Hi
Key and value are are intended for role parameters and are not used by
GeoServer so far.
AFAIK Geoserver does not support administrators restricted to certain
configuration panels.This would require to invent some additional system
roles like
ROLE_LAYER_ADMIN
granting the right for layer configuration but denying access to the
security panels (as an example). Additionally , such roles may have an
optional role parameter like "workspaces=myworkspace1,myworkspace2" to
restrict the rights to certain workspaces.
Would be a nice feature, but unfortunately, it is not supported at the
moment.
