Comment (by carike):

 We had a chat about this in #core-privacy on Slack:
 https://wordpress.slack.com/archives/C9695RJBW/p1580816313173700 (You need
 a Slack account to view the conversation).

 We do not believe that removing the requirement for admin-initiated action
 is in the best interest of the majority of users, as the CCPA, for
 example, requires that personal data export and erasure requests need to
 be subjected to varying levels of verification.

 We propose adding a simple filter that you will be able to override using
 functions.php or an MU plugin.  This would allow you to disable the admin-
 initiated requirement quite easily.

 Would amending this ticket in such a way be acceptable to you?
