Only the GM Can Take or Flip Cards Played From Other Players' Hands

I'm submitting this as a suggestion, but it /might/ be a bug. The Card Deck Help Doc says: 'Players can also pick up cards that have been played onto the tabletop as tokens by right-clicking on the card and choosing "Take Card."' I don't know whether this is true for cards that have been played onto the tabletop *from the deck*. We didn't try that. It is definitely NOT true for cards that have been played onto the tabletop from another player's hand. In fact you can't do anything with cards that have been played onto the tabletop from another player's hand (unless you're the GM). This is really annoying for the game my group wants to play, which involves playing multiple cards face-down and having another player turn one of those cards face-up. They can ask the player who played those cards (or the GM) to do it, but it's awkward and slow that way.
Yeah, I think that this is a bug. I believe the intended way it should work is that once a card is played onto the tabletop, anyone can manipulate it.
Awesome, it'd be a lot more convenient that way.
