Title:
cut expander should show error when accessing protected post

Area:
page: reading, cut tags

Summary:
Right now, if a reader had access to an entry but doesn't any more, clicking on the cut expander doesn't open the cut -- correct behavior -- but also doesn't display an error message. It's very confusing. Clicking on the cut itself takes the reader to an error page where all is made clear, so a little JavaScript error on the reading would be nice.

Description:
Granted corner case, having opened a reading page when one had access but no longer, due to the poster changing the security, the reader logging out in another tab or window, or the system logging the reader out.

In that case, clicking the disclosure triangle to expand the cut flickers but doesn't expand, and doesn't explain why. It seems like the features is broken. Better error handling would be good.
