Hey Paul,
               I don't have a solution, more just a question of use...  Are you 
looking at this function to give the SCA to a group of people (more than two 
obviously) or just to make changing the SCA person easier though AD management?

My thinking is that it is always better to have less SCA's than more as it can 
limit your legal liability for individuals on your SharePoint environment.

Cheers

Subject: RE: Site Collection Admin - use group

Thanks Edge. But Brian is right on both counts.

Full Control is not the same as site collection admin. And not being able to 
assign a group to this field truly sucks. :(

Thanks to you both.

Agreed that's not the same thing.
Try and see if the solution works for you. because internally actually that 
page to add primary site collection is an override of that functionality from 
the page I sent

...you know, the story of the cat and the skinning thing...

As far as I know there isn't a way to use any sort of group for this, which 
sucks - They have a SharePoint group in CA for Farm Administrators (and I'm 
pretty sure you can put AD groups in there) but for site collection admin you 
have to select only specific people without the use of groups, that's a bit of 
a fail in my book

collection>/_layouts/aclinv.aspx<http://%3cyour%20site%20collection%3e/_layouts/aclinv.aspx>

- add the group

- chose give permissions directly

- select full control

CA and at the site collection level. It's a people picker field in both.

Doesn't accept groups for some reason.
