In London version, Unable to add security_admin

[ent]

When adding security_admin role to a user, one must elevate his security privilege. How does this validation work? Does any business rule control this? In London, we are getting error - 'User admin without admin/security_admin role is not allowed to grant admin/security_admin-containing roles or groups.' when trying to add security_admin role.

Security validation is implemented in UI macros.

Also, Please see answers below for your question on purpose of doing this in London.

We actually have a group that contains both admin and security_admin role, if a user that already has existing admin and security admin tries to add another user to this group without elevating his privilege his getting "'User admin without admin/security_admin role is not allowed to grant admin/security_admin-containing roles or groups.'" This only happened in London.
