Ability to Share Workspace Project as READ ONLY

We've had multiple instances where we've created complex projects in Workspace for the business, and then shared them to multiple Stakeholders, only to find one of them changes or deletes something and then hits Save rather than Save As affecting the project for everyone.

At the moment the work around we have to use is to make a copy of the final project and share that, so we still have the original to revert to.

If when sharing there was the option to say whether it was shared as read-only or read/write it would help with this issue. Stakeholders could still make amend but if they then wanted to Save those amend it would only allow them to Save As a new project.

The presentation going over what this would look like in the sneak section of Adobe Summit 2019 "Making Confident Decisions Quickly: Analysis Workspace Tips and Tricks" was awesome. Definitely a lot of use cases I can think of where this would be super useful.

Any ideas on when this would be available to customers?

Hi @jen_lasser, is there an update on this? Now that I'm wfh, I've been working to democratize our data and reports, but this capability gap is making that difficult. I also just had a coworker accidentally save over my hours of work
