Probably not fully globally, because the access may be problematic in setups where we have pre-published record merged with published record and this one has various `interesting' files attached to it that are normally hidden from public's eyes. Some of these are OK, especially for read-only access to the author; but some may want to be kept in a closet. I guess these use cases can be filtered easily by status flag or somesuch. So I'd say generally yes, but not fully globally, let's have a configurable set of flags that aren't touched by this. More IRL. Best regards -- Tibor Simko
