[ckan-dev] user shall see also datasets she is not allowed to access to ask for permission

[Stefan Oderbolz]

Should in those cases the metadata be protected? If you want them to see
it, just don't make it private. State clearly that to access the primary
data, one has to ask for permission.

That way you can keep using CKAN as-is, and protect the acutal data rather
then the metadata, that you want to be open for all.
