Title:
  Collection: view access updating at problematic time

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  When a user creates a new collection and they get to the views stage
  access for each views access is updated immediately as it is added.

  This means that if a user decides that they don't want the collection
  anymore and cancel then the view access is already updated and they
  have lost original settings on views.

  The user might also just add a view and then immediately decide that
  wasn't the right decision and remove from the list.

  This is an issue for both new and existing collections.

  The help file does mention this is going to happen, but I'm thinking
  it is not the most appropriate event for access updating to occur on
  anyway.

  Solutions might be to:

  For new collections:
  a) update access only on the final stage when user saves collection completely
  b) alert user somehow that views are going to have their access updated when 
they navigate past the views page

  For existing collections:
  a) only update when the user is completely finished with the page (clicking 
'Done') and ensure it is clear that the access will be updated at this time

  Any other ideas?
