Allow editing geometry of segments with permanent hazards (PHs)
Currently, if a segment has a PH, it automatically becomes non-editable by lower level editors, even if they would normally be able to edit a given segment, had there been no PH on that segment. This prevents an editor from continuing, and requires intervention from a senior level editor.
The only way around it, is to remove the entire segment with a PH and add it again, in order to continue fixing geometries. However, there is a big downside to this approach, that it also removes added HNs.
One could isolate the PH, by sub-dividing the segment into three segments, and then only remove the smaller segment with the PH. However, this does not mitigate the issue where HNs will also get removed.
A cleaner approach would be allow editing a segment geometry, including nodes to which they are attached, without affecting PH.

It would great if staff could have a look at this. Being unable to edit such segments is an impediment on progressing with making certain changes, like fixing geometry.
