  The "Add Group" and "Add Component" actions are greyed out in
  UCD UI.

  -- "View Resource"
  -- "Manage children"
  
  - Try to add a sub resource to this type via UCD GUI
  - The menu actions will be greyed out.

  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:                                         *
  * Some row actions for the resources page assert incorrect     *
  * permissions when users have custom types. We want to relax   *
  * the permissions. The row actions should work the same as the *
  * bulk actions. Specifically, the row actions that show as     *
  * bulk actions:                                                *
  *                                                              *
  * Add Components                                               *
  * Add Group                                                    *
  * Tag actions are not row actions and do not need to be        *
  * modified/added                                               *
  * Delete is enabled by default, which may have been a bug but  *
  * is the correct behavior now.                                 *
  * These add actions should always be enabled but will fail on  *
  * the server side if the user does not have the appropriate    *
  * permissions. The reason for this is that some configurations *
  * of permissions give a user permission based on the roles and *
  * teams that they specify.                                     *

  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
