uPortal developers,

There's some code in DLM that JIT removes channels from the layout that the user isn't authorized to render.

It does this only for the folders of type header, footer, and sidebar.

https://github.com/Jasig/uPortal/blob/master/uportal-war/src/main/java/org/jasig/portal/layout/dlm/DistributedLayoutManager.java#L243

Anyone understand why it's doing this, and what the distinction is that makes it appropriate to do this for these aside folders but not for @type=regular folders?

I'm wondering whether newly introduced folder types should or should not be included in this special handling, or what considerations would drive deciding whether or not new folder types should be included. :)

Andrew
