Thread ownership

Thread ownerships

This will allow us to create a thread and give ownership to someone who is inside it

Why is this needed?

There are so many thread bots now, such as when you send a message, they create a thread for you, but you can't archive or delete it because the bot created it. So, if you do this, the bot can give the ownership of the thread to someone who has joined the thread, and this member will have permission to archive/edit it.

From my own experience, this'd help a lot.

I'm part of a Discord server where we help people with programming issues. To improve the UX of helpers and askers we want to switch to threads. The user will receive a form (modal, when released), and based of the information the user gives we'll create a thread.

This allows us to add tags to the title, and a more. But unfortunately this results in the bot being the owner of the thread, so we've to add a command for the asker to archive/delete the thread. While that is fine, it'd be nicer UX if we could just give the asker ownership so they can close it themselves.

Allowing thread owner to transfer ownership of their own thread, and users with MANAGE_THREADS (Manage Threads) to set arbitrary ownership of all threads would be good.

You cannot delete your own thread without MANAGE_THREADS anyway.

Allowing archive permission is enough
