Edit roles by capability tool

Normally, when you edit roles in Moodle, you select one role, and can then edit the permissions for all the capabilities for that role. This plugin presents an alterative interface. You can select one capability, and then edit the permissions for all roles for that capability.

You will get a new entry under Site administration -> Users -> Permissions that lets you select a capability, and then edit the permission for that capability in all role definition.
