When a user does not have edit permissions, like anonymous editing is disabled with $wgGroupPermissions['*']['edit'] = false; in LocalSettings.php, #autoedit still attempts the edit and returns the following error:

Fatal error: Call to a member function setResponseCode() on a non-object in /usr/home/coin/public_html/w/extensions/SemanticForms/includes/SF_AutoeditAPI.php on line 63

#autoedit should probably be enhanced to make the link non-functional for disallowed editors, and should perhaps be enhanced to permit optional styling for the link to appear "grayed out" so it is somewhat apparent that it's an element that should work in different circumstances, similar to grayed out form elements. Another possible enhancement might be to allow alternative behavior or text to be specified when the user does not have edit permissions.
