Users sometimes complain that they cannot submit and I would like to know, if they didn't get their rights through Shibboleth (easy start is to look the groups) or they just didn't find the link where to submit. Both has happened and many users don't care to read any help information. Parsing the rights from logs is somewhat tedious.
But if this is intended I think I just have to manage with it.
