Description

This is a nice feature I'll like to have, I will code a patch if there is interest.

Basically every time I set up a new trac I need to go back to TracPermissions and reread everything to build a list of permissions and use trac-admin to get it up, in the form of a long list of permissions.

So I'm suggesting we should add a * support

Example usage. with trac-admin

$ trac-admin <env> permission add *_VIEW 
$ trac-admin <env> permission add TICKET_* #not that useful was we have TICKET_ADMIN but....

On the webadmin we'll have a second box, not the dropdown where you will type *_VIEW and it will give the user/group all those permissions, instead of having to make 11 requests.

Another option for the webadmin will be to reuse the "click grid" so you could click all the permissions then set the user/group and click a "add permissions button"

Could be interesting, but the ideas presented should be fleshed out somewhat.
