Proposal

With merge request approval segregation of duties it is possible to grant users with the Reporter role permission the ability to approve merge requests to a protected branch.

For the approval button to appear for the user with Reporter role you must target a specific protected branch in the approval rule, the approval button does not display when the approval rules targets All Protected Branches.

This means it is not possible to create a singe rule covering all protected branches instead requiring a rule for each protected branch, increasing management overheads.
