Comment 3 for bug 1986722

My initial thought was that it could be a tickbox similar to the "inactive?" box, but I think the searchability is markedly different.

I'm not sure about the general permission group option. It seems like it could potentially confuse users. With that said, maybe not. It's a limited group of people generally with advanced knowledge of Evergreen administration that would be using it. So..maybe?

I think it would be useful to search for users with a particular permission although notable that this would also include "patrons." I can envision a case where someone searched the entire consortium for "resident" cardholders and it causing problems. Though, thinking about it, that ability already exists but just doesn't use secondary permissions.

In terms of searching for users with a specific permission rather than a specific group, I think this would need to be another interface rather than relying on the patron search interface. In fact, all of this could possibly be accomplished in a new interface that perhaps linked off of the patron search interface and/or was linked from an admin page/menu and/or circ menu.
