Paul Anderson reopened JS2-1100:
--------------------------------


Limiting the assignable roles to those possessed by the user of the portlet works as an approach, but there is a bug in the implementation.
When you use the portlet and edit another user's associations, the dropdown list is at first correctly limited to your own roles.
But if you delete a role, the dropdown then changes to list all the roles on the portal, and stays like that.

> There is no way for a deployer to configure preset lists (or combinations) of allowed roles etc that a delegated administrator can assign to filtered users, or to filter out certain roles from the list of options available. (Also no way to set required attributes like language, which would be useful too).
> So a delegated admin can give users full global admin privileges. This makes the portlet unsuitable for production use.
