Description

Currently templeton for the Queue call uses the user.name to filter the results of the call in addition to the default security.

Ideally the filter is an optional parameter to the call independent of the security check.

I would suggest a parameter in addition to GET queue (jobs) give you all the jobs a user have permission:
GET queue?showall=true
