Marcus Christie commented on AIRAVATA-2207:
-------------------------------------------

One interesting aspect of cloning a shared experiment, the sharing permissions 
are cloned with it the way it is currently implemented.  This means that if an 
admin clones a user's experiment, that user will always have read/write access 
to the admin's cloned experiment by default. The admin can remove the access 
from their cloned experiment, but by default the user would have read/write 
access.

I'm not sure if that is a problem or not. In general I think cloning the 
sharing permissions is a good thing because I think it is reasonable to assume 
the user will want the same sharing permissions for the cloned experiment, so 
this reduces a step the user would have to perform if the sharing permissions 
weren't clone. On the other hand, I could see this as potentially surprising 
behavior.

[~eroma_a], [~scnakandala], any thoughts?
