The feature you wanted - Expanded Guest capabilities in GitLab Ultimate

GitLab has introduced customizable roles, addressing customer feedback that the existing static roles were insufficient for specific use cases, particularly regarding the Guest user role in private projects. To balance flexibility and security, GitLab's minimal viable change (MVC) allows Ultimate tier customers to create a custom "Guest+1" role, enabling Guest users to view code across projects, a feature previously limited to Self-Managed GitLab or public/internal projects. This update responds to Ultimate customers' needs for more valuable user roles, enhancing the utility of their subscription by offering more meaningful access privileges. The long-term vision includes a more comprehensive customization of roles, allowing users to toggle permissions to suit their needs without overwhelming complexity, by consolidating permissions into logical groups. This initiative reflects GitLab's commitment to iterative improvement and solving customer pain points, promising further enhancements in role customization.
