1219324 - Loading multiple bug ids over REST (i.e. /bug/?permissive=1&ids=1&ids=2...) does not honor the permissive parameter properly

Status: NEW

(Bugzilla :: WebService, defect)

Description

[David Lawrence [:dkl]]

Even if you pass permissive=1 and you cannot see one of the bug ids that was provided, it will die with the error:

{
   "code" : 102,
   "documentation" : "http://www.bugzilla.org/docs/tip/en/html/api/",
   "error" : true,
   "message" : "You are not authorized to access bug 1. To see this bug, you must first log in to an account with the appropriate permissions."
}

Even if you are authenticated and cannot see a bug in the list, permissive=1 is supposed to push the fault into a @faults array and allow you get back the ones you can see. 

We use eval { $bug = Bugzilla::Bug->check($bug_id); }; if permissive=1 but somehow JSONRPC is seeing the error and not returning normal results even if we leave Bug.get with a list of bug hashes. This is due to JSONRPC setting the error_response_header which REST.pm looks for. It the returns the error response instead of the correct status 200 response.
