Add LDAP GROUP as Administrator

All -

So, I know how to add individual LDAP users as local appliance / Panorama administrators. What I'm wondering is, is it possible to add an LDAP group as an administrator, instead of enumerating each user individually? So, instead of manually enumerating "mark", "bob", "jim" and the 10 other people I want to administer a given box, can I add those users to an LDAP group and tell the firewall to allow anyone within that group to be a device administrator?

Should this be a feature request, if it is not possible today?

Thanks in advance!

Not directly as an LDAP group, but it can be done with RADIUS:

Essentially, you're creating a Vendor Specific Attribute for the users that you want to assign as a device admin, superuser, super reader, etc. It's definitely more work than being able to specify a group, so a filing a feature request with your account team would still be a good idea.
