Add additional collaborator role between "Editor" and "Viewer Uploader" that allows a user to delete
The ability for a Viewer Uploader to also delete content

Thanks for the suggestion! Based on the current information provided, we don’t currently have a feature like this planned.
We’d love to hear additional use case context from interested users, however, in why the need exists to have Viewer Uploaders be able to ‘delete’ without simply raising them to ‘Editor’ level. Any additional information would be very helpful.

In our implementation we have reserved Owners/ Co-owners for Service Accounts.
One of the main reasons is for security. We do not want our users to be able to change the sharing settings on folders and we want to be able to limit the use of anonymous links.
Also, we want to limit the users' who can permission other users.
Therefore we are stuck with Editors who can add users which we consider to be a distinct "Administrative" role. But they are the only ones who can delete a file
And Viewer Uploaders are hobbled by the inability to delete or rename a file.
We require a role who can perform all the Editor functions, without the ability to add users to a folder.
