Prime/Dominant Security Group for VFP users

Since VFP security always apply lowest security/permissions for a user in multiple security groups, I would like VFP to implement the notion of "Prime/Dominant Security Group". If a user is included in 5 security groups, 1 of these group would be his Prime/Dominant security group. Or maybe even better to have the possibility to order all his security groups but let's start by having 1 prime group. That would allow to manage way better security on container by giving a smaller group different permissions even if they are part of a larger group that still need to have some permissions on that container. Without having to create new groups and re-work permissions from top of the tree where the container is. You tag a user his Prime/Dominant security group and that way, permissions of this group would take over permissions of any other security group he is associated to (when multiple security groups for same user on same container). Example: CADD design team to have more permissions on CADD doc container which is under Drawings when they are also part of a larger project Technical team security group which have view only on this folder)
