"Welcome to Kolibri" modal message for existing users whose permissions have been elevated (e.g. to super user)

See original GitHub issue

Observed behavior

When super admin permissions are granted to an already existing user that never signed in before, they are greeted with the same modal message as a first super admin user created after the installation and the setup wizard steps:

Welcome to Kolibri!

The first thing you should do is import some content from the Channel tab.

The super admin account you created during setup has special permissions to do this. Learn more in the Permissions tab later.

Does not happen if the user who was granted super admin permissions had signed in before.

Expected behavior

Something akin to You have been granted super admin permissions on this device. Now you can manage content, import and export channels and manage permissions of other users. Learn more in the Permissions tab later would be preferable.

The part about super admin account you created during setup should definitely be changed.

User-facing consequences

User confusion.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Sign in as a super admin
  2. Grant super admin permissions to an already existing user who never signed in before
  3. Sign in as the new super admin

Context

  • Kolibri version: 0.12.0.alpha3
  • Operating system: Ubuntu 18.04
  • Browser: FF & Chrome

@radinamatic currently no modal is being shown to a user with elevated permissions in 0.15.1 so this issue should be further discussed.
