Description:
Currently, the functions built into the Oversight extension are split between HideRevision and Oversight, yet Special:GlobalGroupPermissions treats them as a single assignable right (Oversight).

Part of the "Review Board" solution on en.wikipedia relies on a "Review Board" solution with access to logs (checkuser-log and oversight) but without the ability to perform checkusers or hiderevisions.

Future group creation (such as an expansion of the Ombudsman role for the WMF) would be enhanced with splitting these functions so they may be separately assignable in Special:GlobalGroupPermissions

I'm afraid I don't know if this is a configuration change for Wikimedia, or requires a modification of the CentralAuth extension itself.
