Currently {SuperUserGroup} defines the name of a group. It would be better if it was treated as a group defininition, cos then it could be a list of users or a list of groups. This would make the super user group wafer and more controllable.

I think this too late - defer til 4.2.1, or even 5 frown, sad smile

Agree it is too late.

Let me spin it upside down just to test and provoke a little.

How about removing the setting and just hard code this? We have splashed ALLOWTOPICCHANGE statements all over with TWikiAdminGroup that you will have to be slightly masochistic to redefine this in configure and chase these settings all over.

So instead of trying to solve this bug item, perhaps it would simply be better to just accept that TWikiAdminGroup is a hardcoded thing. Just like root is in Unix. And Administrator is in Windows.

If someone would need to add a group name defined in LDAP as administrators I'd rather define that you add this group to the "Set Group " list in TWikiAdminGroup

I suspect this was done ages ago with AdminGroup which is now a group topic. Changing to No Action
