Attr_accessible role inheritance

# Before role inheritance
class User < ActiveRecord::Base

  attr_accessible :fname, :lname, :email, :password, :password_digest
  attr_accessible :fname, :lname, :email, :password, :password_digest, :admin, :as => :admin

end

# After role inheritance
class User < ActiveRecord::Base

  attr_accessible :fname, :lname, :email, :password, :password_digest
  attr_accessible :admin, :as => :admin, :inherit => :default # Inherits all the available attributes of the default role

end

I think it would be nicer if we had a block syntax for this or something. Like:

role :person do
  attr_accesssible ....
end

role :admin => [:person] do
  attr_accessible ....
end

Then we wouldn't have to do hash methods.

Ah! That's a lot better than what I was thinking, it's more obvious what your doing and is cleaner with the block syntax.

I think I may try to do this for my first Rails contribution!
