Hey guys, in PHPDevShell V4 I have completely rewritten the UI, this
includes the tagger system. Tagging core stuff like menus, users and
groups is now an absolute pleasure. While rewriting the user management
UI, I realized we are duplicating the tagger system with Extra Groups
and Extra Roles. This is indeed where the complication starts creeping
in and also, this relationship is indeed overcomplicated as only a
primary group and role is necessary.

Tagging is much more powerful as one can tag groups to users, users to
group, menus to groups upon primary roles and groups. This will solve a
lot of headaches and explanations when it comes to permissions.

Title:
  USER_getGroupsQuery and USER_getRolesQuery give back very wrong
  results in some cases

Status in Open Source PHP RAD Framework with UI.:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Both methods are written without really taking into account that they
  might be called to get informations about another user, not the logged
  in one.

  PHPDS->USER_getRolesQuery() checks $this->user->mergeRoles and
  abandons further database checks if that field is not empty. It also
  writes informations to $this->user->mergeRoles, so the results of the
  first user checked by this query will be the only result given back by
  it in future calls. And I'm pretty sure $this->user->mergeRoles should
  return only current users roles.

  PHPDS->USER_getGroupsQuery() does exactly the same with $this->user->mergeGroups, and further more it gives back the main group more than once (this is because $group_string will contain the main group after checking it for childs. $group_main shouln't be merged with $group_string after this).
  Also, $group_array is an array resonse from a query. It should be extended with $group_array[] = array('user_group_id' => $group_main), not $group_array[$group_main] = array('user_group_id' => $group_main)

  To test this just run $this->userGetRoles($userid) or
  $this->userGetGroups($userid) for 2 different users.
