Description
Sometimes a non-admin cannot fetch specific service brokers. As a general room we should not then rely on this to determine service visibility, even if there is no other way to calculate space scoped services. Therefore we should...
- Ignore failures when fetching a service broker. I think we should still continue to attempt to fetch it, which will help us in cases where this does return and we can use it to skip the select cf/org/space step for space scoped services.
- Ensure src/frontend/packages/core/src/shared/components/service-plan-public/service-plan-public.component.ts handles failure when fetching
General info
service plan visibility works on
.. service plan 'public' flag (green for yes)
.. if the service is space scoped (amber for yes)
.. if there are service visibilities (amber for yes)
service plan visibility shown on
- create service instance service plan step
- service page service plan tab

Research direction
Start by tracing the service-broker fetching flow and read src/frontend/packages/core/src/shared/components/service-plan-public/service-plan-public.component.ts. Verify how forbidden broker fetches affect service-plan visibility and the create-instance and service-page views. Done means fetch failures no longer block visibility decisions, while successful fetches can still support the existing selection behavior and the component handles failure safely.
