Our school wants to set up parent Community Groups (with kids in specific grades/levels) where the parents can add events happening outside of school that all those families want to be aware of (parties, celebrations, etc).

Only group owners can add events, and cloning the group owner role with only event-related tasks allowed doesn't work as the groups seem to be set to only reference the actual group owner role for this task.

The only solution now is to give all group members (parents and the one admin who should be an owner) the group owner ("leader") role, and restrict the role to event-related tasks (parents shouldn't have more access). That works for now but has implications if we decide to use community groups for more things down the line.

Being able to create a clones role just for adding events would be much more ideal, keeping the owner role's full set of tasks available to us in the future.
