this is not an issue, we will modify the test instead to give time for control-plane to catch up |

Problem
Brand-new subjects can reach the dataplane before the control-plane publisher has written
UserConfig:<subject>into Redis. The request currently fails immediately with a bare400 Bad RequestandProblem occurred retrieving the configuration, which hides the publisher-latency race from the client.This showed up in live-rbac when fixtures created users and servers, then exercised them within seconds: existing-subject cache staleness is handled by the user-config cache fix, but first-publish misses for brand-new subjects still need a bounded on-miss retry.
Approach
NoDataForKeyuser-config lookups before rejecting the request.403 ForbiddenwithNo dataplane config for subjectif the subject still has no config after retries.Validation
