Comment (by ryan):

 This prompted me to do a visual record as a contributor.

 http://make.wordpress.org/flow/2014/07/10/setting-featured-image-as-a
 -contributor-macnchrome-4-0-beta1/

  28327.diff removes the featured image meta box for contributors.
 Administrators still see the box and all seems well when setting a
 featured image. I did not test with other roles. Looks good. Other tickets
 to improve error messages for this flow and video upload flow would be
 great.
