If I understand this correctly @JammyDodger:

- Create a group of users with intent for them to be Leaders (trust level 4 users) on a particular Category
- Grant this group the ability to moderate the category (this works, thanks)
- This group (being TL4s) should have the ability to do bulk-edit of topics in a that category (hamburger menu magically appears to the left of the word Topic on the top of the category) - well this does not work at the moment

Do we need to wait for the next update of Cloud Discourse?

On our gated data research forum, it would enable us to configure particular categories with a small group of Leaders (power-users) able to administer and moderate these categories with little or no involvement from the site Admins and/or Moderators. This would relieve Staff from these duties and let the communities interested in particular categories be more self-managing.
