I'd love to see this one reversed - to me, linking to a ticket 
doesn't equal updating the ticket.

For us, this feature has unintended consequences - our Help Desk 
staff need the ability to 'lock' a ticket so that multiple people 
aren't trying to answer a question at the same time. To do this we do 
not grant ModifyTicket directly to the Help Desk staff - we grant 
them 'OwnTicket', and we grant ModifyTicket to the Owner role. So 
they have to take or steal a ticket before they can update it.

However, the permissions for creating links now mean that help desk 
staff can't group similar tickets by using parent/child links unless 
they own all of the tickets. This is inconvenient of course, and we 
got around it by bypassing the ACL check .

Thanks,
Steve
