Description

Adding a group to a workflow simplifies the workflow maintenance for large organizations where user might change.

When adding a group the workflow author should decide whether the group members should be handled cumulative (and) or alternative (or).

The group could be resolved either at the time when the workflow is created or when the workflow will be applied.

I would prefer the latter to increase the response to changes in a group.

Would the group be resolved at the time of creating the workflow the workflow would be fixed at this moment. That would need to provide a button for recreating a workflow or the like. This seems to be to much effort because it assumes that the user knows when she needs to recreate, hence, the group has changed and what workflows are affected.

Dynamic workflow creation might have a big impact on the current codebase. If so, it might be a feature for the next major version.
