In the UI we were trying to smooth over not having the right capabilities when generating credentials via dynamic secrets engines - if you didn't have update permissions (most api actions are POST), then we'd just redirect you back to the list. But! it's not always so simple as the AWS engine does GET for IAM, and POST for STS - so instead of checking for every combination, we'll let the ACL system do its job and just show the error in the UI.
There may be some back-button-pressing for some users, but the UI and CLI should be consistent in the use of required ACLs ( #4335 (comment) for the report).
