[db-wg] Idea: magic mntner for all LIR contacts

I have to agree with this, so if I have understood everything what we 
are currently looking at is something like:

mntner: TEST1-MNT
admin-c: TEST-RIPE
auth: SSO-LIR no.foobar
mnt-by: TEST1-MNT
source: RIPE

mntner: TEST2-MNT
admin-c: TEST-RIPE
auth: SSO-LIR no.foobar group1
mnt-by: TEST2-MNT
source: RIPE

mntner: TEST3-MNT
admin-c: TEST-RIPE
auth: SSO-LIR no.foobar group2
mnt-by: TEST3-MNT
source: RIPE

Person 1                                 -> Access to TEST1-MNT
Person 2 | group1                -> Access to TEST1-MNT, and TEST2-MNT
Person 3 | group1, group2 -> Access to TEST1-MNT, TEST2-MNT, and TEST3-MNT

Is this what all of you are also thinking of?

Kind regards,
Cynthia Revström
