Problem or Use Case

Looking at the new "Clear Plate & Start Next" feature introduced in v0.2.0:

With the "Clear Plate & Start Next" button tied to the Control Printers permission, it gives some end-users too much ability. I have to allow them to Stop a printer to give them the ability to confirm the plate is clear to start the next job. This can be dangerous in a controlled setting where anyone would be able to simply stop a job to allow their job to move up in the queue. They also have the ability to configure an AMS slot with this permission.

Proposed Solution

I think we need a new permission setting we can grant to groups of users:
"Allow clear plate confirmation". This would give the most flexibility for different use cases to work with the software as-is.
