What is the effect of including a layer without READ access in a WMS
request?  Does this result in:
- an error reponse
- OR in a map image which simply does not include the data from that layer
(but does include all authorized layers)?

If an error response, is it possible to configure the latter behaviour
(which I would term "graceful error handling").

The potential use case is to support a mapping client which has layers
configured by some external source, which may not be fully in synch with
the permissions on the GeoServer catalog.  The preference is to show as
much data as possible, rather than a complete failure.
