      When using the Matrix Authorization Strategy plugin, granting Job/Create
      without Job/Configure allows users to start job creation but results in
      an authorization error when saving.

      However, the job may still appear in the dashboard, which is confusing
      and appears like a bug.

      This behavior is expected Jenkins behavior but is not clearly documented
      in the Matrix Authorization plugin documentation.

      Proposal:

      • Document that Job/Create only starts job creation
      • Job/Configure is required to save or modify jobs
      • Job appearing after an error is expected behavior
