Bug Description

25% of all questions asked in /launchpad-project require a pillar or person name change. Some are just about name changes, others requests require the name change before another operation can be completed, like registrting a project group. Only admins are permitted to do this, and it make take week for the admins to complete the task. In most, if not all, cases the admin is relying on the CHR engineer to agree the name should be changed.

Allowing the Registry Admins to fix names will reduce the time from days to minutes for many Answers/CHR requests. This will let the Admins work on tasks that are in their domain.

Access is given to registry admins for product/+admin, but the permission on 'setAliases' remains as launchpad.Admin, thus the page breaks.

Third time a charm?
