Description
Hi,
I've noticed that a user who has TAC settings denying access to forums, can still view the name of any forum by using the direct clean url's to them. I.e. http://example.com/forum/2
This might mean leaking bits of information to users it isn't meant for. Probably not a big issue for most people, but would be nice if it can be fixed.

I've had the same issue - I dealt with it by also adding on the Forum Access Control module. I don't think TAC can hide this because the main forum pages are not nodes, and I don't know of any way of supplying a forum page with a taxonomy term. It would be nice though if I didn't have to use an additional module just for this one feature. Does anyone know a simpler way?
