Summary:
Change of permissions for 'categories'
Detailed Description:
Would like a simple method of enabling most editors to be able to add/edit News
categories. Currently to add/edit Categories a user needs 'Modify Site Settings'
that includes loads of options that most site owners definitely never need
access to. Any editor that actively generates news content will quite frequently
want to add additional categories to segment/define the articles.

Maybe access to Categories could use the 'Approve News' permission. i.e. one
step more than the 'Modify News' permission but a long way short of the 'Modify
Site Settings' permission.

Many thanks for your consideration.
