Thanks for the explanation Doug. Thinking out loud... Does this mean if a user themself are grants few rights (RightsA) only and I login via this user but no role that is all they can do. Now I grant a role to a user but the rights (RightsB) via this role is very different from the default rights the user has, does it mean when the user+role is used to login he gets RightsA+RightsB or just RightsB because of the role?
