Description
Currently the site health screen is only viewable if the users has the install_plugins capability. However, if you have disabled DISALLOW_FILE_MODS or you are not a super admin on multisite, you are unable to see the site health. A new capability could be added called view_site_health that maps to install_plugins by default could be added. This would allow developers to add the capability without re-enabling installing plugins.

- Resolution set to worksforme
- Status changed from new to closed
Frankly I'm not sure how useful this will be in core. A specific capability can certainly be added by a plugin to cover cases where there are a lot of people administering a (single) site, and the "site admin" role is split up in several "levels". However thinking this is rather rare and leaving it to be implemented by a plugin is sufficient.
Closing as "worksforme" for now. Please feel free to reopen with specific, somewhat common user cases.
Moving to 5.2 for visibility and discussion as this is a new feature, not as a commitment.
