No they must have moderator access to be a mod so first picture is correct. Second picture is not

If they do not have global rights then the comments photos they mod etc would simply be one's they have a right to approve as in one's from the categories they moderate. This is the intended function of the software.

EXAMPLE this is right from adm-misc.php for comment moderation

$modcats = "";
if ( $User['adminedit'] == 0 ) {
$modcats = get_modcats();
if ( !empty($modcats) ) $modcats = "AND cat IN ($modcats)";

}

If you look at pp-inc.php you will see the get_modcats function and it simple gets a list of categories the moderator is assigned to.
