    Description

      As of RANGER-436, a policy with empty access list is valid if delegated admin is true. But the Ranger Admin UI doesn't allow user to create / update a policy with only the 'delegate admin' permission for a user / group.

      Expected Result:
      Create / update policy with only 'delegate admin' permission should be allowed via Ranger Admin UI

      Actual Result:
      Upon saving, the create page throws this error for user:
      "Please add permission(s) for the selected User, else User will not be added."
      And similar error for group:
      "Please add permission(s) for the selected Group, else Group will not be added."

      Workaround:
      As of now, the workaround is to create / update the policy via REST API. But the only caveat is user will not be able to edit the policy again via Admin UI.
