New: Grouping permissions #7804

It's a lot of permissions in there.. It would be much easier when the permissions are grouped (like system settings but then collapsed at default?). Like

User permissions

When you just want to update permissions for a certain group or part of the manager, you can navigate to the right group and find your permissions faster.

Ow and a "key search" with a LIKE %key% would be great!

I'd like permissions (those based on administrator template) to get split into separate policies based on area. So user permissions into one policy, file management permission into other, etc.

I always use this approach as it eases managing ACL for roles with different privileges. For higher privilege roles I just add another chunk with more permissions. This way I don't need to sync policies and repeat permissions for higher privilege roles.
