> Currently, when configuring a NiFi cluster with OIDC authentication, the 
> FileAccessPolicyProvider requires specifying a single, statically defined 
> user for initial administrator permissions. This necessitates the use of a 
> dedicated service account or relies on a specific user's availability during 
> cluster setup.
> This issue proposes enhancing the FileAccessPolicyProvider to support the 
> configuration of an initial administrator group (e.g., 'dinos') instead of a 
> single user. This would leverage the group information provided by the 
> Identity Provider and streamline the initial rights management process, 
> eliminating the reliance on individual user accounts.
> Specifically, we suggest adding a configuration option, such as "Initial 
> Admin Group," to the FileAccessPolicyProvider. This would allow 
> administrators to specify a group that should be granted initial 
> administrative privileges upon cluster startup.
> This enhancement would improve the manageability of NiFi clusters in OIDC 
> environments by providing a more flexible and robust approach to initial 
> administrator rights assignment.
