See attached screenshot.

A 401 can happen at any time (i.e. session timeout, etc.) and must be handled gracefully by redirecting to the login dialog.

Is this specific to status or generic in all modules ?
(CC jreidinger, he might know ;-))

It is generic issue, I already mention it in a bug, but I cannot remember which one. I reproduce it with every plugin, as it is catched in general exception handler. 
What should be changed is that if rest-service return 401 we should call logout. and set flash to session expire.
Question is what to do, if it is AJAX call? (AJAX cannot redirect I think).
I take it as I know what should be changed.
