Description
When you try to retrieve a redacted version of an object, the API gives HTTP error message 403.
JOSM shows an error message which says "Authorisation at the OSM server failed. The server reported the following error: ' '".
The error message is incorrect. HTTP 403 specifically does not mean that the user is not authorised. HTTP 401 Unauthorized is used for that.
JOSM should also at least show that there was an HTTP 403 error, not that the server reported a blank error.
This was tested in the current online version 5576.
Please add an example id.
