Description

I'd love to have the ability to remove certain ALPS entries like "CREATE" and "DELETE" if the user lacks the privileges to call these functions. I'm not sure though, if this is in accordance with the idea of ALPS itself. This allows me to generate buttons in the frontend depending on the access rights of the logged-in user. I can implement this myself, if you give me a nudge in the right direction, don't quite know where that would fit in your design.
