Description

The simple 1 user = 1 role is fine for basic deployments, but to enable more advanced issue workflows, it would be helpful to be able to associate more than one role with a user.
For example, we could define the following roles:
  • Issue reporter (the user who raised the issue)
  • Triager
  • Developer
  • Reviewer
  • Tester
  • Manager
    Most of these roles do not overlap (although the Manager role is clearly more privileged than the others). However, in an Agile environment, the Developer is also a Reviewer (for another Developer's issues), and may also be a Tester (for another Developer's issues or for their own).

So, in that case the "developer" user needs to have the Developer, Reviewer and Tester roles. The "team leader" user would likely be a Developer, but also a Triager, a Reviewer and a Tester.
