---Will ln -s be chansed to support native symbolic links?No, not until, at least, native symbolic links don't require elevated privileges to use.----- They don't have to..."sorta": Under the User-rights assignment plugin, where you assign what users/groups have what priviledges, you can 'allow' USERS, or ALL ATHENTICATED USERS to have the priviledge. Then it doesn't require them to be an Administrator to use.
No one said "Administrator". Corinna said "elevated privileges". You can't expect that anyone who wants to use a symlink will be capable of getting additional rights.
