it is interesting but I would not do at as a best practice design, I am sure
no one will want to have several boss one boss is more then enough.

this is my analogy:
Server = Boss
Client = employee
Transparent = self contractor

a Boss can tell his employees what to do and where to go employee with
higher knowledge can update his Boss then his Boss will update the rest
employees.
a business with multiple Boss's to the same employees is a Total Mess and it
is a Disaster waiting to happen.

self contractor is working on his own!

nice no? :-)
