I understand your concerns, but I do not share them. The *Group

Ah but you had mentioned that future may bring more functionality to the
Group pages...
Having the page existing as a
measure for future ease does not risk brokenness.
Yes and no... I'm just of the mind set that using things out of scope
tends to get you burned. *shrug*
As for ACL usage, the
only changes that would be necessary would be the addition of ACLs to
the *Group page to prevent tampering, and then the addition of ACLs to
pages that are to be restricted. It would not be necessary to touch
every page.
Right, I meant every page to be limited must be touched, and touched by
an admin.
If ever ACLs are used, it will likely only be applied to a
small subset of pages. By having this page now, we allow the creation
of controlled pages within minutes, and without risk. Your concerns are
certainly warranted, and the thought you have given to it is certainly
appreciated, but I have reviewed the issues and feel that this is the
best way to go. If someone wants to overrule me on this, I welcome
their comments, but I really don't see this as a problem. I just have a
habit of preparing for the future, and think this is how to do it.
I will leave it up to others to decide as well. Your views and mine are
now of public matter (: Neither are incorrect in their own rights, it's
just a matter of opinion.
