Support for multiple admins with specific access privileges
-----------------------------------------------------------
Key: GEOS-1301
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-1301
Project: GeoServer
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Configuration
Affects Versions: 1.5.3
Reporter: Alexandre Leroux
Assignee: Andrea Aime
Priority: Minor
Are there plans to add multiple admins capabilities in GeoServer? The feature would be about multiple admin accounts with each its own access to certain data namespaces. The intended goal would be that some admins will not be able not mess with other admin's data configuration if they have not received the proper access rights.

-------------------------------
No, it's not possible. The request was for multiple admins having access each to a subset of the data. We don't have data related security control at the moment
