passwords / account details / create sub-domains

So how does a user reset their own password?  We need to enable users to reset 
their own passwords without our involvement.

Consider the service provider use case, we need to delegate things like 
resetting user passwords to the account holders themselves.

We also need to allow Domain-Admin's to be able to create additional accounts 
and sub-domains within their domain.  This caters for the 'multi-level' 
reseller use case.

Kristoffer,

It's by design.


Only Root admin can modify the domain structure (create/delete/update
subdomains) and add/remove/update accounts/users.

Domain admin can only enable/disable existing accounts/users in his
domain/subdomains.

Regular user can't perform any CRUD operations neither on other, nor on
his own account/domain.
