It's possible to have a public article in a private category. If you know the URL of the article (Or it is a popular article) it is accessible. Some people may count on this behavior.
Use case:
I want to mark a category private or hidden and for all articles in the category to have the same accessibility/permissions.
Change:
On category edit, add a checkbox below the Accessibility dropdown that says
[ ] Update all articles in this category to have the same accessibility
Unchecked by default. Checking the box and submitting the form will update every article inside the category to match the accessibility of the category.
Question: Should we update articles in sub-categories also or just articles directly in the category? I'm leaning to just articles in the category and not sub-categories.
