Describe the bug
When a specific group is linked to collection default item and/or bitstream read operations, the only possibility to modify this relation is to delete the linked group.
This is particularly problematic for institutions upgrading to DSpace 7 and newer, who have linked the same group to different collection default item/bitstream read settings, who only want to make a change for particular collections.
In DSpace 7, if NO default item/bitstream read rights are set on collection level, the button "Restrict" forces the creation of a new group, dedicated to this single purpose. BUT: I assume this was not always the case in older versions of DSpace, where a selector interface was offered to select an existing group.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Go to edit collection - assign roles, for a collection that already has item or bitstream read DEFAULT restrictions
- Try to apply the restriction to a different group, without deleting the current one
Expected behavior
It should be possible to link to another group without deleting the current one.
