Sorry for the late response, your message got store in a wrong folder on
my server...
I can follow your argumentation and I agree (by 98% ;-)). Nevertheless I
create base entries 'manually' and use PLA to populate/manage them.
The new option 'hide_noaccess_base' set to true will do exactly what I
need: mask the base entries to which the user logged in has no access -
many thanks!
