 Hello @coreyw

 I have linked a PR to this ticket. I've suggested a filter that if set to
 true, the checkbox will output regardless of capability check. Is this
 what you were after?

 Can I also get your feedback @johnbillion ? Happy to alter or adjust if
 it's not quite right.

 This filter can be added to child theme or plugin.

 {{{#!php
 add_filter( 'bypass_cap_check_on_post_cb', '__return_true' );
 }}}

 Testing welcome.

 Thanks.
