Roles tab is redundant for users who can administer users

Created on 17 February 2020, over 4 years ago

From a UI perspective, it seems redundant to have a separate page just to change roles when this can be done via the standard user form for users with the `administer users` permission.

This was mentioned in the closed task Allow to delegate roles on user creation β†’ but not implemented.

I propose we return AccessResultNeutral for the Role page access check if the user has the `administer users` permission, for which I will provide a patch shortly.

Alternatively, if there is enough support we could provide a role page access specific permission.
