Issue Summary

The client/user ACL interface is too easily confused with a place where you can "add users" (because it does say "add user" in the stupid form). It should be made clearer what the form is form and how it does *not* create the client (although it could create it if it doesn't exist, i'm not sure it's a good idea).

I've committed an implementation of hook_form_alter() to add a note to the User registration form that this is not the form to add new clients. Screenshot attached.

Hehe... that's nice, but it's not actually what I meant here. :) I'm talking about the client *edition* form which now has an interface, at the bottom, to add clients to the user. That is the interface that is confusing.

Crap. Let me know if you want me to revert.
Sorry

#4

No don't revert! That change is fine, it just doesn't address the core issue here. :)
