  * The groups collection will be flat.  Groups cannot be created as  
children of existing groups.

  * Groups can belong to other groups.  In this way complex  
collections of users can be expressed without duplication.

+++ Challenges
+
+* Make sure we handle group structures that represent an infinite loop
+
+* Create a UI that allows administrators to be able to view all  
effective users in a group (including those that are a part of the  
group through group membership).
+
+* How do we handle backends that can't support nested group  
membership?  Example: LDAP can store this information but cannot  
integrate with other systems like Unix, which has not concept of  
nested groups.
