https://linear.app/unleash/issue/2-1136/custom-root-roles-documentation
- [Adds documentation referencing custom root
roles](https://unleash-docs-git-docs-custom-root-roles-unleash-team.vercel.app/reference/rbac);
- [Adds a "How to create and assign custom root roles" how-to
guide](https://unleash-docs-git-docs-custom-root-roles-unleash-team.vercel.app/how-to/how-to-create-and-assign-custom-root-roles);
- Standardizes "global" roles to "root" roles;
- Standardizes "standard" roles to "predefined" roles to better reflect
their behavior and what is shown in our UI;
- Updates predefined role descriptions and makes them consistent;
- Updates the side panel description of the user form;
- Includes some boy scouting with some tiny fixes of things identified
along the way (e.g. the role form was persisting old data when closed
and re-opened);
Questions:
- Is it worth expanding the "Assigning custom root roles" section in the
"How to create and assign custom root roles" guide to include the steps
for assigning a root role for each entity (user, service account,
group)?
- Should this PR include an update to the existing "How to create and
assign custom project roles" guide? We've since updated the UI;

## About the changes
Implements custom root roles, encompassing a lot of different areas of
the project, and slightly refactoring the current roles logic. It
includes quite a clean up.
This feature itself is behind a flag: `customRootRoles`
This feature covers root roles in:
- Users;
- Service Accounts;
- Groups;
Apologies in advance. I may have gotten a bit carried away 🙈
### Roles
We now have a new admin tab called "Roles" where we can see all root
roles and manage custom ones. We are not allowed to edit or remove
*predefined* roles.

This meant slightly pushing away the existing roles to `project-roles`
instead. One idea we want to explore in the future is to unify both
types of roles in the UI instead of having 2 separate tabs. This
includes modernizing project roles to fit more into our current design
and decisions.
Hovering the permissions cell expands detailed information about the
role:

### Create and edit role
Here's how the role form looks like (create / edit):

Here I categorized permissions so it's easier to visualize and manage
from a UX perspective.
I'm using the same endpoint as before. I tried to unify the logic and
get rid of the `projectRole` specific hooks. What distinguishes custom
root roles from custom project roles is the extra `root-custom` type we
see on the payload. By default we assume `custom` (custom project role)
instead, which should help in terms of backwards compatibility.
### Delete role
When we delete a custom role we try to help the end user make an
informed decision by listing all the entities which currently use this
custom root role:

~~As mentioned in the screenshot, when deleting a custom role, we demote
all entities associated with it to the predefined `Viewer` role.~~
**EDIT**: Apparently we currently block this from the API
(access-service deleteRole) with a message:

What should the correct behavior be?
### Role selector
I added a new easy-to-use role selector component that is present in:
- Users

- Service Accounts

- Groups

### Role description
I also added a new role description component that you can see below the
dropdown in the selector component, but it's also used to better
describe each role in the respective tables:

I'm not listing all the permissions of predefined roles. Those simply
show the description in the tooltip:

### Role badge
Groups is a bit different, since it uses a list of cards, so I added yet
another component - Role badge:

I'm using this same component on the profile tab:

## Discussion points
- Are we being defensive enough with the use of the flag? Should we
cover more?
- Are we breaking backwards compatibility in any way?
- What should we do when removing a role? Block or demote?
- Maybe some existing permission-related issues will surface with this
change: Are we being specific enough with our permissions? A lot of
places are simply checking for `ADMIN`;
- We may want to get rid of the API roles coupling we have with the
users and SAs and instead use the new hooks (e.g. `useRoles`)
explicitly;
- We should update the docs;
- Maybe we could allow the user to add a custom role directly from the
role selector component;

https://linear.app/unleash/issue/2-1071/prevent-users-from-disabling-password-authentication-when-there-are-no
Improves the behavior of disabling password based login by adding some
relevant information and a confirmation dialog with a warning. This felt
better than trying to disable the toggle, by still allowing the end
users to make the decision, except now it should be a properly informed
decision with confirmation.

- **Password based administrators**: Admin accounts that have a password
set;
- **Other administrators**: Other admin users that do not have a
password. May be SSO, but may also be users that did not set a password
yet;
- **Admin service accounts**: Service accounts that have the admin root
role. Depending on how you're using the SA this may not necessarily mean
locking yourself out of an admin account, especially if you secured its
token beforehand;
- **Admin API tokens**: Similar to the above. If you secured an admin
API token beforehand, you still have access to all features through the
API;
Each one of them link to the respective page inside Unleash (e.g. users
page, service accounts page, tokens page...);
If you try to disable and press "save", and only in that scenario, you
are presented with the following confirmation dialog:

### What
In the demo when listing possible users to grant access to your project,
we inadvertently expose emails when listing users you can grant access
to. This PR anonymises the access list on the way out.
feat: adds a way to specify a root role on a group, which will cause any user entering into that group to take on the permissions of that root role

By having the controller perform try/catch around the
handler function allows us to add extra safety to all
our controllers and safeguards that we will always catch
exceptions thrown by a controller method.

feat: options are now typed
- This makes it easier to know what to send to unleash.start / unleash.create
- Using a Partial to instantiate the config, then melding it with defaults to get a config object with all fields set either to their defaults or to whatever is passed in.
