Description

Would it be possible to give users that are not admins but have the right to invite guests the possibility to delete the guests again? The guest App helps us with our workflow, but right now we need to email an admin to delete guests. Right now, there is no other possibility, is there?

Research direction

Start by tracing the existing guest invitation and guest deletion entry points, then inspect where the admin-only restriction is enforced. Confirm how the right to invite guests is represented and whether it can safely authorize deletion. Done means an authorized non-admin inviter can delete guests without receiving unrelated administrative permissions, with coverage for the permission boundary.
