New user role - with permissions between Automator and Site administrator Merged

A client has requested a new user role, with permissions between Automator and Site administrator. The idea is to have a user role with the permissions to manage the policies and to execute actions. Nowadays the Automator can execute the actions but cannot change/manage the policies; and the Site administrator can change/manage the policies and much other possibilities that are not need for a user  owner of some namespaces that only need to manage groups, policies, and execute actions. So the request is a user role with the Automator permissions + the possibility of change/manage the policies.

    Hi Dri, I am merging this with other existing RBAC enhancement ideas. We are building a framework that will allow for the creation of custom roles that would exactly solve your problem here.

    This woudl be extrelly useful for those large customer where there is a role dedicated to configure the policies that apply to its team and they don't want to have the privileges and vision of other policies. In a practical case, Turbonomic for openshift and a very large OCP cluster with different namespaces managed by different teams. Every team needs to have the ability to modify their namespaces policies and configure them as they are the ones that know what config needs to be put in there. 

    There is also something that would support this function moving forward as it would only involve to have a site admin role with the option to be "scoped" to a certain group in Turbonomic.

    It make a lot of sense to have it in OCP scenarios with large OCP clusters involved which the case of large customers.

    If is there any other workaround we could take it's very appreciated.
