Have Document Permissions Set on Project Template Carry Over to Created Projects

Description - Currently, when you share a document folder on a project template with a group / team / individual, or choose to not allow inherited permissions, when you create a project those same permissions set do not carry over. However, part of the purpose of templates is determining permissions to be on the created projects, so this setting not carrying over doesn't make sense...

Why is this feature important to you - We need the ability to restrict access to certain document folders and should not have to do it on each project, but rather at the project template level

How would you like the feature to work - Created projects should receive the same folder permissions set on the project template

Current Behaviour - Projects created from templates do not retain the same folder permissions set on the project template when created

I strongly agree. I'm not sure why we would want to set document folder permissions at the template level if they aren't going to carry over to the project.

I really wish this worked as well! Almost seems like an oversight, as the project sharing permissions carry over, but not permissions for the document folders.
