That leaves Manager as the only permission which might be useful, and for anyone not actually architecting the site (adding products, creating structure or editing Plone internals via ZMI), it's unnecessary and probably dangerous.

Well, I figured siteadmins would be a very limited-access group. :) You're probably right in that we can change its roles to just be Manager.

The primary motivation for this group was to make it so that people could have kplug-site-only accounts and still be capable of managing the site at a deep level (basically, anything aside from installing products and restarting the zope instance.)

Curious what cumbersome issues you've run into. I've never had an issue keeping an account at a higher folder level and letting it inherit down into Plone. As soon as you log in you get a full setup in the Members folder and should be indistinguishable from any other user created at that level.

I couldn't add "gkade" or "jpenix" to any groups, because they would not be listed in any user listing when you're trying to select users to add to a group. Likewise, searching would not turn them up either. Also, I don't like operating with god priveleges all the time, and like having a "normal" user account I can give privileges to in order to test how things work for other people. I'll still use my gkade account for deep architecting/admin work, but for normal work, I'm planning on sticking with "chef". :)

Admit it you just wanted to play with Quills :) So the verdict still reads for SimpleBlog?

No, SimpleBlog is even worse for use as a multi-author blog system. SimpleBlog is very specifically a single-user getup. Quills is supposed to be capable of multiple users on the same blog, but it just doesn't seem to be there yet. Maybe when it hits 1.0 it'll be more useful. If you want an example of SimpleBlog look at http://unnerving.org/method for mine. The "Archives" folder tree is my own creation just to help me keep the thing sane.
