DescribeFeatureType alaways causes 401 when layer security mode is "mixed"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: GEOS-3803
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-3803
             Project: GeoServer
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Security
    Affects Versions: 1.7.6
            Reporter: Eric Lemoine
            Assignee: Andrea Aime

With

*.*.r=*
*.*.w=*
geob_test.tasmania_cities.r=ROLE_ADMIN
mode=mixed

in the layers.properties file, DescribeFeatureType requests always result in 401 responses, even if the DescribeFeatureType request targets an unprotected layer.

The following exception occurs:

08 Feb 10:15:33 DEBUG [ui.ExceptionTranslationFilter] - Access is denied (user is anonymous); redirecting to authentication entry point org.acegisecurity.AccessDeniedException: Cannot access tasmania_cities with the current privileges

Problem observed with version 1.7.6.
