QOL: dealing with trust levels

This is just a suggestion, to see what others think. As an Admin, when I go to Groups, I can see the Trust Level groups (makes sense) but when I open them, I would expect to be able to access information there to see/manage:

  • what are the criteria for being added to that group
  • what rights or perks does the group provide.

The fact that the criteria are in a completely different section (under Trust Levels) is a bit strange.

Regarding the criteria, it would be easier to see clearly what the different “steps” are between the trust levels if it were presented in table format (at least on desktop). For example, list the criteria and have one column per TL with the values.

Similarly, the permissions for trust levels are lumped in with the other groups under “group permissions”, which doesn’t make it very easy to understand what will change for somebody when they progress from one TL to the next. I also have the impression a table format would be easier to work with here. And that all this “TL stuff” could be in one place, rather than spread out in three different places.

Any thoughts?
