[midPoint] RoleType in workflows

[Radovan Semancik]

Hi Adra,

Fist of all I need to clarify the question a bit. Are you trying to 
specify a groups of approvers for a role?

If this is the case then you should use Org to group approvers, not a 
role. Roles are used for provisioning and they cannot be used for 
grouping users. Orgs are used for user grouping. So use org instead. The 
org OID can be used instead of user OID in the approverRef property.

I see that the "Role vs Org" issue is not obvious. Therefor I've just 
explained it here: https://wiki.evolveum.com/display/midPoint/Roles+and+Orgs
