Feature Request: Document Type Management Permissions

We understand that, currently, creating and managing Document Types in OpenProject is restricted to system administrators.

We would like to ask whether OpenProject could provide an option that allows Project Administrators to create and manage Document Types for the projects they administer.

Ideally, the permission model would work as follows:

System Administrator: Manage Document Types globally

Project Administrator: Add and manage Document Types for their own projects

Regular User: Select from the Document Types available within the project when creating a document

It would be particularly useful if Document Types created by a Project Administrator could be scoped to that specific project rather than being shared across the entire OpenProject instance.

If this functionality is not currently available, could you please let us know whether it is planned for a future release or whether it could be provided as an Enterprise feature?

Thank you.
