See https://twitter.com/trotzendorff/status/694910789585625088

Instead we could simply write "You're not logged in" if the user is actually not logged in. Maybe there would be even no error message needed as it's kinda obvious when showing the login form.

We still need to show above error message "...requires at least 'view' access" if user is logged in, but has not access to the selected website

Is this issue done? I tried to jump straight to an admin area while not logged in and received the following. The displayed messages seems to have been simplified at some point since that tweet.
