             Bug #: 42142
           Summary: VisualEditor does not recognize page protection
           Product: VisualEditor
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: General
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]
                CC: [email protected], [email protected],

    Classification: Unclassified
   Mobile Platform: ---


The VisualEditor interface does not currently recognize page protection. If a
user visits a protected page (a page to which he or she does not have access to
edit), VisualEditor will still display a working edit form and the first click
of the "Save page" button will work. It will produce a dialog box that will
present a second "Save page" button that does not work. Ideally, VisualEditor
would not let a user get this far without indicating that the page is
uneditable.

Related to this, there's no warning for administrators that a page is protected
when they're editing the page. This may be a separate bug, however.
