Permissions DragCheck (faster permission checkbox selection)

Provides click & drag for checkboxes on the permissions page to administer permissions faster.

Lightweight Drupal 8 alternative to Fast permissions administration (FPA) module.

Implements the wonderful Drag Check JS library fron @scarlac: https://github.com/scarlac/drag-check-js for the permissions matrix page.

Alternatives:

• Fast permissions administration (FPA) module
• Browser plugins which address the same problem (poor for current FF versions)
