Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Provide content creators with a way to see if a collection is accessible to all users or only a select group. This would help simplify the process of sharing content appropriately across a larger organization.

Non-admin content creators currently cannot view the access permissions of a collection, thus they don't have a way to know whether a question they save into that collection will be accessible to the general public or only to a restricted group of users.

Describe the solution you'd like
Use distinct icons to differentiate between common access levels by the general public (All Users group). For example, use specific icons to indicate whether a collections contents are

  • editable by All Users
  • readable (but not editable) by All Users
  • neither editable nor readable by All Users (access is provided via membership in other groups)

Additionally, provide a way to view the permissions of a specific collection for all users with at least view access to the collection. At the same place where admins are able to edit the permissions, they would see: ... / View Permissions

Describe alternatives you've considered
Using official collections to change the icon of the collection - however this is not the intended use, and it is also not autoatmically tied to permissions.

How important is this feature to you?
Important - it would streamline the process of sharing content with correct permissions, particularly in larger organizations.
