Bug Description

When a group member uploads a file, then removes members rights to view/edit/publish, they can no longer access the file.

What should happen is that the group member that initially uploaded it keeps the same access as a group admin, in my opinion

Just a quick note Hugh, the "Opinion" status is a "closed" status like "wontfix" or "fix released", so it's better not to use it for bugs we intend to fix because it might get lost.

    Allow group members to view their own files

    If a file is in the groups area that doesn't have member access
    then the group member that initially uploaded it can't view it

    This patch allows the author (uploader) of a file to still have access
    no matter what the access is set to for the group role they belong to
