Subject: btrfs send requires root

Hello!
I have just started playing with btrfs, and noticed that "btrfs send"
only works for root (ERROR: failed to initialize subvol search.
Operation not permitted), even on subvolumes created by the user.
Am I doing something wrong? Or is this the intended behaviour?
My setup (/data is the root subvolume):
mkdir /data/snapshots
btrfs subvolume snapshot -r /data /data/snapshots (creates
/data/snapshots/data)
btrfs send /data/snapshots/data > /dev/null
Returns:
ERROR: can't perform the search- Operation not permitted
ERROR: failed to initialize subvol search. Operation not permitted
Thanks!
Matthew
