--- Quote ---Now that I look at this, I am wondering if the heading of "Administrators:" might be somewhat misleading for these permission dialogues.

this picture show's, that this usergroup has at minimum one of the permissions to admin on this page. it's not possible, to display here every permission
to remember a example: you have not only one usergroup, you have (maybe) 20 Groups, and maybe, it's a registered page, then you have the same row also on the right side for allowed visitors in frontend

My point is not that every permission of every user group should be listed here. I am fine with the selections provided. My point is that the Heading term "Administrators:" is ambiguous. It does not clearly make the point that it just means that those selected have "at minimum one of the permissions to admin on this page". "Registered Viewers" is a bit more clear, but still not blatantly.
I haven't spent a lot of time pondering this, but perhaps something along the lines of "Backend Permissions:" and "Frontend Permissions:" as headings might possibly be something to consider. I'm not trying to tip over the apple cart here, it's just something that came to my attention from reading the OP. If no one else feels that consideration of this type is of any benefit, then please ignore it.

--- End quote ---
I have never seen 2.8.4 and so I have absolutely no knowledge of what it did or didn't offer. I was around when it was being developed, and I know you and a select few others were testing (and even using) it, but I was not one of them.

This finally helped! Thank you!!! :-)

Make sure you have the Pages "Advanced Options" set for the group:
If you just select Pages, the group will only have "View" permissions.
Here are the minimum Advanced Settings to be able to "Add" and "Edit Content":
If you like, you can add the group permissions to a page, when you create (Add) it:
If you want to add group permissions to a page after it's been created, or if you want to change group permissions for a page, you can do so on the "Change Settings" tab of the Page:
Hope this helps.

Happy to hear you got it worked out. What was your particular issue? Were you at all confused by the "Administrators:" heading on the page Page Settings page?
Topiax:
No, not that. It was the hidden "Advanced Options": at first I didn't realize, that I should check some checkboxes there, too. But thanks anyway! :-)
