"View all imagecache presets" permission [#558820]

It's useful to be able to grant access to view resized images on a per-preset basis, but IMO it's more common to want to make all presets available to somebody. Having to remember to add the new preset permission every time one's added is a chore - would it be hard to add a 'view all imagecache presets' permission?

Investigation suggests it could be as easy as
a) adding the permission and
b) adding an "OR" clause to the permission check inside imagecache_cache_private().

Find attached a patch which does this. Fail [y/n]?

I'd also love to see something like this committed!

Updated patch for latest dev version.

+1 I'd like this too...

I'd would also be nice if imagecache would somehow make images for which a user has no permission not being listed. Now I get a bunch of broken images in a gallery, I'd rather see an empty gallery :)
