Oh, that sounds great. Both enhancements would be great (but one of them would be sufficiant from the point of my plugin)! Because for some of the "administrators" it is a barrier to set up sftp access or filesharing. So if such an easier alternative way would be available to manage the server groups would enhance the usability of the plugin.
P.S.: As I read Version 0.7.0 of Galene will have exactly one of the ideas the plugin does (invitation links) as a native implementation - very nice.

Ok, so you're ignoring Galene's built-in authentication mechanisms, and
just using short-lived JWTs for everything.  That makes sense.

I'm wondering what I could do on the Galene side to simplify your usage.
In particular, would it be useful if you could just do an HTTPS PUT
(properly authentified) in order to update a group definition in order to
avoid sftp?  Or perhaps we could have a mode of operation where groups
automagically come into existence if they are required by a properly
authentified token?
