Kinto does now show permissions if you have write access on the parent object

[sambhav]

Kinto currently shows permissions for an object only if you have write permissions on the object. This however does not work as expected if the write permission is granted on a parent object. Although the user is able to modify the permissions, the output from a get request does not reflect the actual permissions.

Yes you are right.
