In the course of deleting and reinstalling one of our corpora I noticed
the following behaviour of cqpweb:
* When a corpus is deleted, the associated corpus privileges stay
intact.
* When I install a new corpus under the old corpus handle, the
privileges of the deleted corpus apply.
I find this behaviour notable and unexpected: My expectation were (a)
when a corpus is deleted, the privileges are also deleted and (b) when I
reinstall a corpus it gets a new corpus id and is not associated with
the privileges of the older version. However, it saved me some time when
I was fixing some minor corpus issues that required deletion and
reinstallation: The privileges were just there and I hadn't to bother
with them anew.
