I’ve stumbled across this gem that seem to be quite complete for group  
permissions and rights. The only problem is that there are no examples  
of how to use it in a real world (eg how to assign permissions from a  
UI, create permissions and roles on the fly, etc).

Has anyone looked into this gem and found it useful? Any tips would be  
appreciated.
