Merge Staff Roles tab on Project to Data Type Security or vise versa

When we assign Staff to a project, it would be nice if that also added their datatype security (ie adds that Project to their list of jobs they can access) versus having to do this in multiple steps.

    I just answered my own issue.  When I assign an HQ Staff Role to the user in VA user Profile, it auto-adds that user to the HQ Staff Role, so it maybe easier to develop the Staff Roles FROM the DataSEcurity Types from the VA User Profile ie after selecting a STaff Role, then add the Jobs for Datatype security and that user/Role get auto-added to the Projects.

    That would be amazing yes.  As well, if we have a wishlist, adding a VPUser should auto-add users into the HQ Staff Roles by having those roles as a drop-down list in the VA User Profile versus the HQ Staff Role updating the VA User Profile.

    Perhaps an option that states as a checkbox, "Add to datatype security allowed list"?  Would that work?
