Allow method for bulk transfer of file ownership in Connections UI by someone other than the owner

Requesting the feature to enable another user other than the owner of files to perform a bulk transfer of file ownership through the Connections UI.

For example, a possible feature change would be to introduce within the Connections UI a method to allow the Connections admin to access a user's files and have an option to select the files and initiate a bulk transfer of ownership.

Currently, only the file owner has the option to bulk transfer owership of his/her own files in the Connections user interface via a browser.

The only other option is to use the wsadmin command or api which is just as time consuming as doing it one at a time as you still need to identify and feed in each of the file ids to transfer ownership :
