Cherry-picking, gitlab permissions

The official Gitlab instructions (along with the still being transitioned
developer's guide) mention the ability to cherry pick merges from the GUI:
https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/merge_requests/cherry_pick_changes.html#cherry-picking-a-merge-request
https://www.wireshark.org/docs/wsdg_html_chunked/ChSrcContribute.html

Those buttons don't appear for me. I do see this bug about the cherry-pick
button not appearing for projects set to fast-forward merge only, like
wireshark:
https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/5990
but the workaround listed in that issue doesn't work for me either.

I suspect that it may also have to do with permission levels. Is the
current workaround to do it from the command line? Are there plans to have
people who are not core developers request get and various intermediate
levels of permission? The "Reporter" level of permission seems to include
only things that previously people could get by registering for Bugzilla,
and some other features that people used to be able to do seem at the
"Developer" level (though that also includes some higher level permissions
too.)
