Would be nice to assign access to other users to be able to make changes to the library so you don’t always have to switch back to the main user account to do this. Just a thought.

this not only should be a feature, i’d consider it a requirement to have multiple admins on a system

This is one of those features that should’ve been made available a long time ago.  
(And, in my opinion, there are a lot of those “obvious” features).

That wouldn’t work for a single person.

Normally I would just give them the PIN for the “King” account, but due to the fact that there is photo backup for a few other accounts, so for privacy’s sake…I’d like to limit access to that account to only myself.
