[midPoint] Relationship userType - orgType

[Radovan Semancik]

Hi,

Oh yes, there is a very nice way: just use assignments.

Users can have assignments for Orgs. They can have any number of 
assignments to any number of Orgs. A user can even have several 
assignments to the same org as long as there are different parameters 
(orgRef, tenantRef or any extension property). Assignments can have 
extension properties that define the type of the assignment if you need 
that (e.g. to differentiate teacher and student). Or you can use the 
"relation" feature in targetRef. We use that feature to distinguish 
organization managers from members, but it should be generic enough to 
also support other types (teacher, student). Assignments also have 
validity ("from" and "to" dates), so they are ideal to model relations 
with a fixed end date such as student affiliations to school that 
automatically end at the end of semester.

Assignments are designed from the day 1 to handle exactly the use case 
that you are describing.
