In Joomla 3 the edit account link from the user menu (top right) went to a view of com_admin and not com_users. This caused loads of problems with things like tFA and custom fields not showing up when accessing the user account details via the com_admin link.
No one came up with a reason/explanation why it was done that way so we killed the com_admin link and changed it to a com_users link.
Today I found the reason it used to be done with com_admin. If a user is a manager then by default they do not have access to com_users so if they try to change their account details from that link they will get a 403

I tried the edit own response but the menus got a bit funky if you dont have access to the component. Don't remember how exactly

What do we do here? Restore the profile view and try to workaround mentioned issues? Or change permission checks in com_users to allow all users edit their own profiles?
