Description

When a user doesn't have permissions to do some operations on the DVR webui, tvheadend will pop the authentication dialog.

I find this annoying because:
- you will have to re-authenticate to keep using the webui
- if you cancel the dialog, you'll have to re-authenticate to use the webui

In my opinion it should popup a dialog saying something like "no permissions" or "access denied".

Updated by Luis Alves almost 6 years ago

This was mostly "fixed" with the changes from: "http: forbidden status / access_verify2() cleanups, fixes #5391"

Now it doesn't pop the re-authentication dialog when a forbidden action is made.
The only thing left to do would be to pop up a small dialog with something like "No permission".

The annoying part is gone so it's fine for me if you want to close it without adding the popup message.
