Hi:

I want to do the following proposal:
- Add a "Access taxonomy multi edit" to admin/user/access
- The user (role) with this perms. would be allowed to change taxonomy terms in all nodes in which he has edit permissions.

This would be a more general approach and would add to decentralize site maintenance without the risk of giving administer node permissions to every content editor.

Thanks.-

Access to the node list screen ("content") and its actions is via administer nodes permissions AFAIK.
I can't see how we can present that page but disable the rest of its functionality for some users.

But the request makes sense.

I've added user_access('administer nodes') || user_access('administer taxonomy') so you can access the "Assign categories" (not the content admin page) page even if you can't admin nodes. "Administer" is a slightly higher level than "Assign" :-/ but it's much simpler to manage.
That's probably good enough for now. Just looking for a quick win here.
