Will need both a simple view-permission changing for public/institute/custom, as well as full-matrix granular setting UI that limits to a particular hierarchy subtree (the site).
Beta-3 now has a new Role-setting interface that allows setting the role of 'the world' and 'institute users' throughout the site hierarchy. This UI is part of the classic-mode editing UI. This implementation closes this feature-request.
