Description

Plone 3.3.1. You only show those roles that the user can grant/revoke from someone (and is also a white-listed role). It would be a reasonable UI design if users only go there to change things, but they also go there to review who can do what, because, especially non-local-guru users can be unsure/confused about that. But they can't see what others can do with the object (unless they also can grant that role), actually, can't even see if what themselves can do with it. Also, since you are using a whitelist of shown roles anyway, it's just less confusing to consistently show the same table everywhere with the checks/no-checks in the cells. Someone has a lot of white-listed roles, that's maybe a different story, but by default you only have a few.
