Playlist Ownership and Management

I just installed version 3.5.2 on FreeNAS which I had to install from scratch, so I'm building up some playlists again. Part way through making playlists, I decided to take a more secure approach and create a separate admin account from my viewing account (which now has no admin rights).

 

I noticed that once I took away admin from my viewing account, I have a more limited list of actions I can perform on my playlists; specifically image and metadata editing are missing. Some functions such as 'subtitles' maybe should require an admin because that would affect global content. As I understand it, the playlists are owned by my viewing account and even the admin doesn't see them when I login under that account. Since my viewer account owns the playlists, it should have full admin rights to modify it.

I didn't find any other posts about this quirk. Is this intended or a bug?

HI, yes this is an issue that needs addressing. Our entire system of playlist management and ownership is something that needs to be reworked. Thanks.
