[Spacewalk-list] Channel Access Mode, sharing software channels

Hi!
I use trusts between organizations to share software channels from one organization to the others. Not all organizations should have access to all software channels, and this was working fine in Spacewalk 1.5.
In Spacewalk 1.5, I logged in as the Organization Administrator of the "software channel sharing" organization and could add/remove which organizations that had access to a specific software channel:

1.      Log in
2.      Click on the "Channels" tab
3.      Click on "Manage Software Channels" menu item
4.      Click on the channel I want to modify
5.      Scroll down and check that "Organization Sharing" is set to "This channel is protected...."
6.      Scroll up and click on the "Organizations" link
7.      Mark those organizations that should have access to the software channel
8.      Click "Modify Access"

In Spacewalk 1.6, the "Organizations" link in step 6 above doesn't exist, and neither does the "Managers" link that was there in 1.5. When setting the "Organisation Sharing" on a software channel to "protected", I have to choose between allowing all trusted organizations access or no trusted organizations get access. I haven't found a way to modify the access so that only some trusted organizations get access to a specific software channel.

Is this a deliberate change/removal of functionality? Is there a way to enable this functionality in 1.6?
