Yes, there'd have to be admin privileges that override all other access permissions. Are you saying that such a role does currently not exist in TreeBASE? Introducing it would then likely mean a quite significant change, I would imagine. Maybe this could be accomplished in the short term by having a "super-password" that allows logging in as any user.

The assignment to Vladimir, if it is still there, was from the time of the public release and post-release. Where we're currently at with grant funding I don't see much sense in him investing the time in digging through the code, acquiring enough understanding of it, and then implementing it. So consider this task unassigned. Is Harry in a position to take it on?

(For really hopeless submitters, I sometimes have to resort to logging in under their credentials to create a submission for them, etc. -- so being able to transfer a submission that I have created under my own account is valuable).
