> Currently, [Delegated Aministration|http://syncope.apache.org/docs/2.1/reference-guide.html#delegated-administration] is based on Realms and Dynamic Realms.
> The former is quite static but widely used; the latter is extremely flexible but not used in any deployment, in practice, because it quickly becomes slow with real numbers.
> An idea is to put in place some form of group-based authorization model: user A is allowed to administer user B if (a) B is member of group G (b) A is owner of G.
> One advantage of such approach is that no changes in persistence would be needed.
