Hi Miguel

I fear this is not possible. You would need something like
ROLE_WORSPACE_AMDIN with a role parameter specifying the workspace name.

The security subsystem allows role parameters like
ROLE_WORSPACE_AMDIN(workspace=<empty or default workspace>).  For the
users, you can add profile attributes like

student1(workspace=wsstudent1).

During authentication, user student1 will get the role
 ROLE_WORSPACE_AMDIN(workspace=wsstudent1).

The missing part is the access control logic restricting admin access to a
specific user.

Cheers
Christian
