--- Comment #4 from Jonathan Druart <jonathan.druart+koha at gmail.com> ---
Tools that allow you to batch delete/edit/create will use the "background jobs"
(also "task queue" sometimes) feature in a near (hopefully) future.

The goal is to process the job when the server can do it (and to not block the
user, the job is enqueued and they don't need to care about it).


So any users with access to those tools (listed is short now, but will be
extended later, even to plugins certainly) should have access to the list of
jobs THEY enqueued (at the minimum).

I don't think it should be a permission, neither it should be linked to the
permissions of the tools using the task queue (it's a list that we will need to
keep up-to-date, and it will be tricky when it will be extended to plugins).

> Can we stop background jobs from there?

Yes, you can cancel a job, but only those you started (or you have the
manage_background_jobs permission).

I am in favor of displaying a link to that page for any users with access to
the staff interface.
