Regarding Coppermine 1.3.2 and vBulletin 3.0.3

My core "problem" is about integrating Coppermine portfolio disk space to bridged vBulletin users by allocating  defined vBuletin user groups different amounts of disk space.

I guess the natural connection is connect vBulletin user groups with Coppermine user groups. Processwise: When users register to a certain user group for vBulletin they would at the same time be allocated defined disk space in coppermine
OR
any other method to allocate diskspace to a user (usergroup) when registering via the vBulletin bridge?


If not yet existent is anything like the above planned?

If not yet existent nor planned would this be a difficult hack to code?

[EDIT- ADDED TO ORIGINAL POST]
While checking the bridge file code in vbulletin30.inc.php i came across this:
// Permissions for a default group
   $default_group = array('group_id' => VB_GUEST_GROUP,
       'group_name' => 'Unknown',
       'has_admin_access' => 0,
       'can_see_all_albums' => 0,
       'can_send_ecards' => 0,
       'can_rate_pictures' => 0,
       'can_post_comments' => 0,
       'can_upload_pictures' => 0,
       'can_create_albums' => 0,
       'pub_upl_need_approval' => 1,
       'priv_upl_need_approval' => 1,
       'upload_form_config' => 0,
       'custom_user_upload' => 0,
       'num_file_upload' => 0,
       'num_URI_upload' => 0,
       );


Could that be multiplied and the rights indicators changed regarding different usergroups from
vBulletin? If so... How should the above be edited if I wanted to have two user groups like: demo user and pro user. Names equal to group names in vBulletin groups. A practical example of code would be great!
[EDIT END]

Further; I learned that subfolders are planned. Any vision about the time schedule regarding these?

Pardon, if any of my used terms seem unclear or outright false.

With best regards,
