The user, group, role model is actually (IMHO) pretty flexible. I have used
in several project and it seems to fit many situations. And I am sure
it fits in the simple model that you ned to solve.
However, We probably need to change the group because it is an unfortunate
name. And
it frecuently missunderstood.
The idea is that every user has a role within a group.
Examples that I've seen in real life:
- You can have a catalog of products, but every departamente is managed 
by a differente person. Luis has the role manager whitin the pet
departament.
Pedro has the role manager within the clothes departament. Lupita
is a manager in clothes and pets. Salma is the manager in all the
departaments (global).

- One company has many branch offices. Within each branch officer, you have
a general manager,
a sales manager, a purchase manager. In this case you have one group for
each
branch.

- One site has several sections. One person is an editor in section one and
a reviewer in section
two. Another person is editor in all sections. In this case you have one
group for each
section.

Basically, the group has a meaning that fits your needs. It is NOT a group
of users as
it is in Unix.
