Description

As it's neither useful nor necessary:
  • Useless: roles are meant to control access, but Grafana service is external to dashboard, so there's no way to enforce these policies (any user can access Grafana dashboards independently).
  • Unnecessary: Grafana is just a infrastructure component, while roles are meant to control access to Ceph workflows (RBD, RGW, etc.). Hence every Grafana Dashboard should be hidden/displayed based on the specific Ceph workflow where it's embedded in.

Good point, I agree. This would also simplify things a bit. However, we need to ensure that any existing roles/and permissions related to Grafana are cleared up during an upgrade.
