[dev] vhosts separation, user admin rights, userid based vhosts

[Serge Chernyavsky]

Hi All,

I'm working now on the latest Horde Groupware Webmail edition and trying 
to let it handle few non-standard use cases.

Searched docs and mailing lists but some things are still unclear or 
need advise:

- Is there a standard way to delegate user management for non-admin 
user(s)? If not - what would be right place to code it in?

- I use vhosts and external database for users. Admins are different per 
vhost basis. Of course environment should be separated. Would it be 
entirely wrong to use single database for everything and, say, auto 
assign unique group for users of each vhost and code in separation for 
shares, groups, users?

- I'm trying to implement vhosts based on domains taken from userid (all 
userids are in user at domain form). Tried to add 
$_SESSION['__auth']['userId'] handling in Horde::loadConfiguration and 
it works for logging in process but not for the later stuff. Could you 
advise how would it be better to implement it?

Thanks a lot,
Serge
