Can a team own a study?

Is there a way that a team can be listed as the owner of a study?

I team I help lead has a study we use to post weekly puzzles for members. The three team leaders are already members who can edit the study. Another team member has stepped up to cover posting the puzzle during the puzzle master's vacation. But to add that new member to the study, the person who created the study had to do it. The other two could not. While it worked fine this time -- as that person was available -- it would be helpful if any of the team leaders could have done this.

Is that already available? Or would it be a (minor, I would hope) feature request?
I'm sorry if I misunderstood you @CrossEye but why can't you just add all of the team leaders to the collaboration section? It's very easy to do.
@CrossEye i'm not 100% sure, but i dont think thats possible

i just suggest to make it public, and share the link with your team, instead of invite them one per one
@Tommy_Chess: The team leaders are already added as members of the study and can update it as needed. The only concern is with who can add others. If the one who created the study is not available, no one else can add new members to it. My thought was that if it was somehow owned by the team rather than that individual, then there's backup.

@Tryoesk: It's not a matter of adding the team members. They have a standing invite, and every weekly email with a puzzle includes a link to the latest chapter(s). The issue is that I'm leaving on vacation, and we found a volunteer on the team to take over the puzzle posting. We had to add him as a member of the study. I couldn't do that. Only Roger, the one who created the study, was able to do so. I was simply hoping that if this happens again when Roger is not available, any other of the team leaders might be able to add someone.

This is not a big deal, and from our use-case alone is certainly not worth a great deal of effort. But if it's a simple change, it would be nice to have. If no one has taken it on when I return from vacation, perhaps I'll spend some time trying to learn Scala.
