    Description

      We use front page feedbacks for course evaluations, mapped to individual courses.

      Recently, when users attempt to map a feedback, they're getting the error "Sorry, but you do not currently have permissions to do that (View courses without participation)".

      The error occurs as soon as the user begins to enter text in the search box on the mapcourse.php page.

      The users are assigned to the 'teacher' role in the feedback activity context, with permission to edit and map the feedbacks. They also are able to view or search for course titles on the Site Home page, and they can see which courses a feedback is currently mapped to.

      Users should not need the "View courses without participation" capability in order to map a front page feedback to a course.

      This behavior is a regression from prior versions.
