Separate permissions for "New Discussion" or "Comment"
Should it be good if we can have Guests a permission for only Comment (view and add comment) not start a new Discussion.
Right now, if I give them a permission to view category. They can also Start a New Discussion and even for some View-Only-Category, Guests still can post a comment which any other roles can't.

-) Funny, really.
You can set category IDs in config: This overwrite given permission *.View
And for guest only one type of permssion 'View'. There is no 'Add'.

If I get this right, so Guest can't "Start a New Discussion" on single "View" permission checked category. Is that right?
Yep, known bug :[-
> Is that right?
If guest can VIEW category, then he can ADD comments/discussions there.
I'll think how this problem can be solved.
