Groups are badly named. A Group == Project. It is a way of associating a
User<->Role<->Project all at once.
A User has the following Roles in this Group.
Or if you equate a Group to a Project...
A User has the following Roles in this Project.
Think of Jakarta. It has a ton of Projects. Each user would have a Role in a
Project and you would associate them together in the Group table.

A Sandbox is a place where you can do development.

If you think of a Group == Project, then that is easier to visualize.
