geoserver 2.1.x : Problem of the security with layer group
----------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: GEOS-4781
                 URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-4781
             Project: GeoServer
          Issue Type: Bug
         Environment: Ubuntu 10.04
            Reporter: mickae1
            Assignee: Andrea Aime

GeoServer Info :
    Version 2.1-SNAPSHOT
    Subversion Revision 16341
    Build Date 26-Sep-2011 05:02
    GeoTools Version 2.7-SNAPSHOT (rev 38076)

Because a layer group is not a children of a workspace, it can't be protected by a security rules. the only way to access the data of layergroup is by putting :

*.*.r=ROLE_ADMINISTRATOR,*

which is not convenient !

My test was :
#Fri Sep 30 12:54:42 CEST 2011
*.*.r=ROLE_ADMINISTRATOR
*.*.w=ROLE_ADMINISTRATOR
world_map.*.r=*
mode=MIXED

and I had layergroup that contain all the layer that is in the workspace "world_map".
