See
http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-12937 and the comments. The menu
checks only if the current user has view right on the current page because
we cannot know where the user will copy the page. The user may have edit
right on some specific place in the page hierarchy and iterating all the
page hierarchy to see if such a place exists is very costly.
@Stev: is the behavior you’re observing different in 7.4.4 from 8.4.4?
If so it would be nice that we mention it in the release notes for 8.4.1.
Checking for real-only is super fast though so I agree
we should do that:
show the copy action if the current user has view right on the current page
and the wiki is not in read-only mode.
@Stev: could you create a jira issue for this?
Thanks
