Summary: Enhanced Security: Access without server admin rights

Initial Comment:
I would like to allow my guests to create and save their 
own playlists over the web, but I don't want them to 
fiddle with the server settings OR wake me up at 3:00am 
with "Ace of Spades" at full volume. So I'm thinking 
maybe an enhancement to the security subsystem that 
allows for different levels of access. I'm thinking 
something that allows you to create and manage 
individual user logins, each of which can have 
specific "roles" allocated to them. e.g. User "bob" can 
only create and save playlists, but user "timmy" can 
create playlists AND cause the player to play music from 
a remote browser. User "admin" has full access to the 
system and can manipulate server settings.

I think that would be ace. And so do you.

marking as a dupe of 437.  in spirit, these are the same even if the specifics
aren't an exact match.  whatever eventual solution that does come along will
take both into account.
