I do not agree that cthit/Gamma should provide clients that have super group types specified. The long-term goal of Gamma is to be an account service for student divisions other than just IT, and the clients it provides should support that goal.
I'm aware that this will affect how typing works with Rust, but I still do not think that should be prioritized over the long-term goal of Gamma.

I can partially agree with this as super group types are defined dynamically in Gamma 2.0 so technically all of the specified groups could be missing and only Other would exist. What I don't know however is how we can do this better, for our use it is very handy to have an enum that represents the common types that we actually use.
If we just remove the comments specifying the IT division this would be applicable to basically all other student divisions on Chalmers at least? As for the Admin type that should probably be removed completely as it is not used ether way.

Let's talk further on a future workshop how to handle clients in general, since I think a rust client will not be the last implemented client.
