Make it more obvious that enabling this module will "break" your site.

Problem/Motivation

Yes, "break" is not really the correct word.. but too long to explain in the title. And don't get me wrong; this is a great module and great that D8 has added form modes - odd that it does that but doesn't allow management of them.

My issue is i just spent an hour tracking down why my clients could no longer create content (and shortly after sorting it out; that new users could not create account). It would be good if it was highlighted; possibly when enabling the module that this module automatically adds a permission setting (which is disabled for all roles) for all form modes - effectively preventing anyone that is not an admin from doing much of anything on the site.

Agreed and agreed, and i would even go further, and that if possible all permissions should be granted on module install. That would both make it so the module does not make the site unusable until permissions are carefully configured, and also make it more clear how permissions should be used.

Related to ✨ Permission like 'Use Example form mode with user entity" does not grant permission Needs review in the sense that both call for clarifying the permission wording and documentation.
