There is a higher level concept of roles called application roles. Application roles are identified by a unique name and can contain an arbitrary set of other roles (an example is Editor@Market News page and Editor@Market News portlet). This makes it possible to use application roles to bundle cohesive allowed actions, simplifying access control administration. Application roles with the same name in different database domains are correlated, so it is possible to aggregate roles from different database domains within one application role.
Access control portlets are not set up to handle application roles, but application roles can be handled through the XML configuration interface.
