[Plugin: NextGEN Gallery] Permissions problem still not fixed? (3 years old bug)

Hello, this plugin is the best, what can I say.

But, just now, I got hammered by the “permissions bug”, which appears to be at least 3 years old.

The “hack-olution” on the following forum page works. But I hate to say, next time NextGen updated, that problem likely to re-surface.

Please fix!
