        It wasn't intended to be covered by the existing RFE.  That RFE
        is to restrict on which machines a user has access to a particular
        Rights Profile.  It is not an aggregator of user_attr entries.
        If you're asking to aggregate user_attr entries by netgroup,
        please file a different RFE.
