Description

Currently, users without administration privileges cannot manage their guests.

It would be useful to have the following capabilities:

  • create a new guest like we create a new user that is in a guest panel. It is ok to create the guest from the share panel, but would be better to have a clearer way to do that.
  • delete the guest
  • assign the guest a subset of the privileges that an admin has defined instance-wide (i.e. the guests app whitelist)

Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by reviewing the existing share panel and guest panel flows described in the issue, then trace how guest creation, deletion, and instance-wide guest app privileges are currently handled. Done means non-admin users can perform all three operations for their guests without exceeding the administrator-defined whitelist.
