Description

This will make it easy to make a project or collection world-writable. (Currently, one would need to create a role group and add everyone to it, including all future new users.)

IIRC (TC) the reason why the user→"all users" group link is read-only (can_read) is to prevent users from modifying/renaming the role group record itself. If that's the only reason, it seems like we could prevent that with a special case in the update permission check: non-admin user cannot update the well-known "all users" group.
