Metabase: Add possibility to give permissions to share dashboards/cards to group
Hi guys,
I played around with the sharable links feature and it looks great !
To make make more use of it, it would be best if we could give to a trusted user the ability to share links.
For example some users have only access to non sensitive data and such can freely share.
Thats always better that sharing through CSV/excel :)

Right now, the only way to give sharing permissions is to give make a user admin.
I believe adding a separate permission for question sharing would be safer. If users can create an artifact and are trusted to share questions, then they should be able to do so without having administrative privileges.
The back and forth for sharing between the IT and other departments got so annoying and counterproductive, that we ended up giving admin access to at least one person in each department.

Without this permission, the admin has to come in and OK each and every question to be shared publicly.
As Metabase gets more popular within our organization, this will clearly become burdensome, and put the unhealthy pressure to make everyone an admin.
Is it really that difficult to simply create this extra permission that allows a user to share a public link to a question?
