Public bug reported:

When a view is in a collection, its "Edit Access" page is still
accessible and the access rights can be changed. When I went into the
collection access rights, the new user had been added as well though I
did not get a message on the view access page telling me that I update
the collection access at the same time.

When I go to the view access page of another view in the same
collection, I still have the old access rights in there.

As collection access rights overwrite view access rights, I would
disable the "Edit View Access" link on a view that sits in a collection.
The user cannot get to it from the view overview page - why should he
get to it on the actual view? That would make it easier to edit the
access rights for a collection really only on the collection page.
