Accounts can be added to custom groups (but in
Home they then may no longer show as limited)
and these custom groups can be used to grant some
things. However, it all depends on what one wants
to grant. Access or denial of access to specific
areas in an NTFS partition, or to specific executables
stored in NTFS is, for example, simple to do. But
granting some things is simply not possible, such as
installing applications that install for all users instead
of for just the installing user, without granting so much
that one might just as well grant admin.
Again, it all depends on what one wants to grant or deny.
