Feature Request: Add support for user policy banner or page about ondemand HOT 4 OPEN

Hi thanks for the feature request and sorry for the delay on discourse.

Just off the top thinking about this, I figure we'd need

• Something to indicate the user has never logged in - like as you indicate a file somewhere in ~/ondemand.
• Some sort of API for acceptance. Maybe this API can use the same file for updating.

I have an idea to enhance the current implementation for Announcements to add a dismissible feature.
These are announcements with a button. When clicked, the announcement will not appear again for the user.

We can use the user settings to store that the announcement was completed. If this is required again, a new announcement needs to be added.

It does not stop the user from using OnDemand, but if required can be made big enough to go over the page fold.

This is a small demo, I have configure 2 announcements, one is dismissible:

I created a prototype based on announcements. It adds 2 new features to announcements:

• Dismissible Announcements
• Required Announcements

Required announcements will block all requests to the application and only display an empty homepage with all the announcements until all required announcements have been executed.

Aday's feature was merged, so it'll be in 4.0. Let me know if it's what you'd expect or not.
