If a user doesn't have the "Administer menu views" permission, when they edit a node and add a menu item the form is missing some fields so you cannot select a menu.

These two screenshots show the problem. Both are with the same user, who has the "Administer menus and menu items" permission.

This is what you see when the user doesn't also have the "Administer menu views" permission:

This is what you see when the user also has the "Administer menu views" permission:
menu_views-node_edit-with_perm.png

The "Menu item settings" part of the form should always be there.

I guess what is probably happening is that the Menu item settings area is dependent on what you choose for the menu item type setting and because the user doesn't have access to teh menu item type settings then the rest is hidden.

The menu item settings part should default to visible.

Hmm, I'll need to take a look at this. More than likely a line just needs to be moved around.
