Changelog Entry

Description

This PR implements admin control for interface settings with global defaults, permission-based access control, and user reset functionality. Admins can now configure default interface settings (chat bubble, wide screen, RTL, etc.) that apply to all users, while maintaining granular control over which user groups can modify these settings.

Key Features:

  • Global admin-configurable interface defaults
  • Permission-based hiding of Interface Settings tab (ui.interface_settings) on a group level
  • Three-tier settings fallback: User custom → Admin default → System default
  • Reset button for users to revert ALL USERS custom interface settings to admin-configured defaults
  • Backward compatible with existing installations, no breaking changes

Architectural Decisions:

  • Interface settings are global because adding these on a group level IS NOT POSSIBLE TECHNICALLY. If a user is part of two groups with conflicting interface settings, which interface setting takes priority? These are not permissions which are additive.
  • Permission is group-level to allow admins to lock down the interface for specific user groups (e.g., restrict customization for external users while allowing internal users full control)
  • This hybrid approach balances user experience with administrative control
