Description
The new editor role (which is an awesome and much needed idea!) doesn't currently include permission to add new content items. It should. In my world, people with 'edit' permission on folder will always want to add new items to that folder, as well as edit what's already in there.

I agree with Jon, adding content inside that piece of content is what's expected. We can alter the label to be "Can Edit/Add" to make it clearer, but the behaviour is sane.
It doesn't make sense to be able to edit a folder/howto but not be able to add things inside of it.

Making sure this doesn't slip through the cracks. :)

Interesting question.... I'm not 100% sure which is the correct behaviour. It's an easy change to the workflows, but what should be the default?
