Project Manager Approval Process Scope Change

When using shared images, the project's Project Manager is no longer getting approval requests and it goes straight to an admin.

My thought behind a PM is that they would be the one to manage all VMs in that project's scope. So by not allowing them to approve 'shared images' there's a gap. The fix, right now, is to create a copy of that image and import it into their project. That is tedious and it wastes space on both the PowerVC node (metadata of the image) as well as on the storage device (boot and data LUNs).
