Or rather, it's vital for one user 'account' to be allowed to be a member of
more than one group (just like unix group models... :-)
Communities (I gather?) are to do with who issues the certificates; ie who
trusts who. Groups are about permissions to do things once that trust has been
established.
I remember vaguely this discussion well over a year ago; it was going to be a
real pain to try and make the *same* account work across different communities,
which is why there are groups. Of course, things have changed since then...
