We are interested at some point in a development that would hide the "Edit items in batch"; "Delete items in batch"; and "Delete all items" options in the Edit menu of the detail.pl page through either a user permission or a system preference. It was suggested I contact the developers list to see what community developers think about this as a permission vs system preference.

I'm in favor of permissions (and also a little confused) because ... two of those menu options are already protected by permissions, specifically tools/items_batchdel and tools/items_batchmod.

There is no permission (other than the general permission that grants the ability to edit items) guarding the 'Delete all items' permission, but I think it would be reasonable to add one or two, perhaps along the lines of:

editcatalogue/delete_items

editcatalogue/delete_all_items
