Kevin:

I am not sure if you're interested, but I made some code modifications at 
Cornell University's dspace instance that puts up an informational display when 
one clicks on an embargoed bitstream or one that is controlled by IP.  The code 
that I use is based on some code that I borrowed from Terry Owen at the 
University of Maryland several years ago (Thanks, Terry!).  It puts up displays 
based on the group that controls a bitstream.  So, here at Cornell, we have our 
embargo code set up to restrict a bitstream to a specific group "embargo" which 
has read access to the bitstream.  I have the code for JPSUI 1.8.2 and XMLUI 
1.8.2.  If you are interested in the details, I can send them to you.  

Below are examples:
For Embargo, go to http://ecommons.library.cornell.edu/handle/1813/31510 and 
click on the bitstream to see the display

For IP restriction, go to http://ecommons.library.cornell.edu/handle/1813/29540 
and clikc on the bitstream to see the display

I'll assume the default Mirage theme.

The process normally looks like this:

1) click on an embargoed bitstream, get the following prompt:
The file is restricted
The file you are attempting to access is a restricted file and requires 
credentials to view. Please login below to access the file.
Sign in to DSpace

2) sign in to dspace as a non-administrative user

3) get the following message:
This bitstream is restricted
You do not have the credentials to access the restricted bitstream

This seems pretty straight-forward to me. I'm not sure how you'd like to make 
it clearer.

Anyway, I added a new feature that appears in DSpace 3 that shows a lock icon 
for bitstreams that have restricted access (missing Anonymous READ). Since 
you're on 1.8, you have 2 options if you want this feature:
1) upgrade to DSpace 3
2) apply my patch from this Jira ticket (it's compatible with 1.8):
https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-1193

There's a screenshot attached to that ticket showing what it looks like.


If I misunderstood and you wanted something else, please explain.
