Split admin panels in seperate components

[Sebastian Krysmanski]

It would be nice if the admin panels "Configuration" and "Users" were in seperate components. This is useful when you have a Trac installation where you have several Trac projects of which you "trust" their admins (e.g. when providing a Subversion server with Trac support for everyone who needs it).

Seems that #5830 is a duplicate of this ticket.

I submitted ticket #7700 with a patch that kind of implements what you want using a new permission to manage users without splitting the modules (I don't give TRAC_ADMIN permission to project managers, but they can administrate all they need with a set of *_ADMIN permissions).

I'll seek to implement both, the permission separation and hiding of admin pages accordingly, if this is not already taken care for by Trac itself.

(In [9280]) AccountManagerPlugin: Allow acctmgr administration for non-TRAC_ADMINs, closes #3726 and #7700.

With dedicated AccountManagerPlugin permissions now you could not only delegate AccountManager administration to users without granting them TRAC_ADMIN, but even differentiate access policy within these settings (closes #1902 as well):

• ACCTMGR_CONFIG_ADMIN - for /config and /notification
• ACCTMGR_USER_ADMIN - for /users
• ACCTMGR_ADMIN - inheriting all without requiring TRAC_ADMIN
