Pardon for me also horning in on a topic of some interest... For the
sake of illustration, assuming one has assigned an admin password in
local config, isn't it also possible to use Site.AuthList to set read
and write options for entire wikis, as well as individual pages and
groups within a wiki?
Looking around the corner for the next question/example request, how
might one set up AuthUser and Site.AuthList to allow anyone with a
password to edit the Calendar groups, while only allowing admins to edit
the group Rules, and only allow those with assigned passwords to read a
ListContact page?
