Hi,

I would like to share with you three proposals about XE/XEM. I've not a 
clear idea about the cost in terms of "programming effort", but I would 
like to know if you consider them suitable.

1. In a XE/XEM default installation I think it would be better to 
include the username/password fields and the links "Forgot your username 
or password?"utilities in the headerglobal area. That way, users will 
not be redirected to a different page and can easily see changes in 
their current one (the one from where they are logging) once they are 
authenticated.

2. On log out, if the user has not access to his/her current page, it 
will be informed with a message. Currently you "only" get redirected to 
the log in page. Users with concerns about who access contents they have 
created or are responsible of, will be happier with this information 
message.

3. To show in the Information tab or in an /ad hoc/ tab adding some 
administrative capabilities (granting/revoking access rights, for 
instance) what users/groups have what rights on the current document.


All these three proposals/ideas are mostly oriented to the use of XWiki 
based information systems developed for groups with requirements about 
access control and access monitoring. Nothing weird in industrial 
environments, nor in biomedical ones.

Thanks for your opinions!

Ricardo
