>But this violates ACL, though, doesn't it? Now you have an already loaded page with buttons that let you do, for instance, administrative tasks while the backend doesn't consider you an admin. You now have a dokuwiki that's effectively in an "illegal state"...? Not really, depends on the policy of your site, in my company, if the person has "delete" access of the page, it is allowed to set the page's ACL.
