   Indeed, that seems like a pretty confusing thing - possibly also something 
that we can address for 2.0 and I'd be glad to cherry-pick it to 1.10 if (again 
:) ) this could be an easy fix.
   
   I think this is not the best idea to show details of why there is "access 
denied" - from a security point of view, showing details of access problem 
might be a clue for an attacker - but, from earlier discussions - this is not 
too big of a problem here. The user has already access to the UI so possibly 
showing at least "which" page the "Access Denied" error is about is not really 
a big problem. @ryanahamilton @jhtimmins  (since you were working a lot on the 
permissions recently) -> WDYT? Would that make sense to add some extra 
information to the "AccessDenied" error to tell at least which resource/page it 
is about? 
   
   I think improving the "flow" might be quite a bit more difficult and Access 
Denied might still show up in another page (due to redirections) but at least 
showing what the "Access Denied" was all about might be a "good-enough" 
solution.
