I have just started playing with btrfs, and noticed that "btrfs send" only

Am I doing something wrong? Or is this the intended behaviour?
Intended but can be revisited to allow non-root owner's to send their
snapshots.
Returns:
ERROR: can't perform the search- Operation not permitted
ERROR: failed to initialize subvol search. Operation not permitted
The SEARCH_TREE ioctl is also root-only and a unconstrained interface to
the filesystem internals, so a new ioctl would have to be introduced to
do what send needs.
