Added

  • User write actions: lock, unlock, deactivate, reactivate, grant/revoke admin,
    set password — each behind a confirmation that states what it actually does.
  • The dialogs carry the consequence, not "are you sure?", because every one of
    these verbs is narrower than it sounds: locking does not end existing sessions,
    unlock does not reactivate, reactivate does not unlock, and revoking admin leaves
    existing admin sessions intact. An operator locking a compromised account needs to
    know the attacker is still connected.
  • Only the actions that fit the account's actual state are offered — no "unlock" on
    an account that is not locked.
  • Self-lockout is refused. MatrixCtrl admits only MAS admins, so locking or
    deactivating yourself, or revoking your own admin, would close the door you need to
    reopen it. Refused too when the acting identity cannot be resolved: not being able
    to tell is not permission.
  • ConfirmDialog moved into the shared primitives from the one route that had it
    inline, and now closes on Escape.

Security

  • Deactivation never erases. MAS defaults to asking the homeserver to GDPR-erase
    the account; MatrixCtrl always sends skip_erase: true and says so in the dialog.
  • Passwords cannot reach the audit table — the audit middleware records no request
    bodies. Because of that the endpoints are verb-in-path (/grant-admin,
    /revoke-admin), so the trail says which way the change went without logging
    anything that must not be logged.
