It's confusing for me too. When I found it in announcement deep
regression test it was not easy to me understand what was happening, and
I usually work administrating Sakai. I guess that it will be worse if
it's an Instructor has to understand that he can't set up permission for
a group if it's not a member of this group (he can create it, he can
destroy it, but can't handle the permissions). In my opinion it has to
be more clear here. Any other opinion? Do you see this clear?
