pablobm created an issue (openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website#6794)
Assuming that https://github.com/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/pull/6713
is merged, we'll have an issue where clients have no way to tell if they are
allowed to leave a note in a specific point. If an unauthenticated user writes
a long, thoughtful note, submits it, but then it fails because it was a
moderation zone... they have wasted their time, if not lost their work.
We will need:
1. An API for clients to tell if the current user will be allowed to post a
note in a given point. Something like `GET /api/0.6/notes/allowed?lat=X&lon=Y`.
2. The website to communicate this to users. Behind the scenes this might be by
either using this new API or by leveraging its more direct access to resources
(eg: the `/notes/new` endpoint could check if the note will be allowed and
respond with informative content if not).
