Usability Feedback: Viewing permissions for a lifecycle
Customers have asked that there be a way see the what the different permissions settings are in a lifecycle. This would allow admins to see that they have correctly set up their permissions without going through a test asset . It also supplies additional information for users so that they know why they can or cannot do/see certain things.
What are you thoughts on this request? Is this a need that you've run across also when dealing with lifecycles?

o Community's roles
o Ability to give read/write permissions to a specific asset
o Ability to give collaborators permissions (potentially overriding community permissions) on a state of a lifecycle
