First of all, thank you very much for your great project and the continuous development! Pangolin is a very useful tool that makes management and security much easier.
Feature request:
It would be very helpful if a user could be assigned multiple roles at the same time. This would significantly increase flexibility in permission management.
Currently, it seems that only one role can be assigned per user. Supporting multiple roles would greatly improve user management, as you would not have to assign permissions to each user individually but could work more easily with groups.

This is a must-needed feature to manage user permissions across multiple resources. Could we provide the same for IDP-created users? The IDP can return a list of roles for the user, which can then be parsed on the Pangolin side.

Blocking a user prevents them from interacting with repositories, such as opening or commenting on pull requests or issues. Learn more about blocking a user.
