Description
Final users don't know what a url alias is, so there should be a way for having automatic friendly urls, without filling any form.
I am not sure what is the best approach: permissions or maybe more css selectors for hiding the fields with css
I know Drupal is very easy, but there is still room for making it easier for final final final users

Thanks for taking the time to submit an issue. I believe this is a duplicate of #263380: Do not expand "URL Aliases" fieldset.
Please consider if this is a duplicate. If not, you can mark this issue as active again.

Hmmm at this time, once you allow a user to administer nodes, the user have available all the forms that modify the node. Making those forms collapsed make them less intrusive, but not entirely straight forward to use.
I think there should be separated permissions for each form to be displayed, but I see this is not the standard in drupal modules.
Perhaps a css class in the fieldset could have everybody happy, because it adds more control for the presentation.
Thanks
