Description Daniel Kinzler 2014-07-17 17:56:00 UTC 
Redirects are currenty "experimental". But once they are out of experimental and we deploy them, they should be disabled at least until we get the corresponding schema changes rolled out. We have a B/C switch for the database layer, useRedirectTargetColumn, but using that to control whether the API should have a wbcreateredirect module is a bit awkward. We should have an actualy feature switch.

We will abuse the create-redirect permission instead.
