I think you may want to raise a JIRA issue for this.

Yes, as an alternate solution, as you rightly mentioned if it is feasible for you then Make admin as a site manager temporarily and unshare the content and again remove admin as site manager.
For a quick reference you can do this as following.
Login as admin -> Go to admin console -> From Sites Manager, Become Site Manager for the given site.
Then unshare the content. Next, again being logged in as admin, Leave the site. This way you are back to the original scenario.

Hope this helps.
