Description

The permissions required to access autocomplete are the same as those required to access the index. There should be a dedicated permission for autocomplete.

// not a typo; we intentionally reuse the INDEX action for permission checks in autocomplete
if (!$this->isGranted(Permission::EA_EXECUTE_ACTION, ['action' => Action::INDEX, 'entity' => null, 'entityFqcn' => $context->getEntity()->getFqcn()])) {
    throw new ForbiddenActionException($context);
}

Example:

User 1 is allowed to administer the entity (and therefore has access to the index).

User 2 should be allowed to use the entity through autocomplete without being able to access the index.

Research direction

Start by tracing the shown autocomplete permission check and compare it with the existing index permission handling. Identify where these permissions are defined and exercised; done means autocomplete can be granted independently while index access remains restricted.
