Description

If you go to All Configuration or Configuration Presets while your LocalConfiguration.php file is not writeable, you will end up in the redirect to the "Extension check", which is misleading and doesn't help the user understand the problem.

We should

a) provide a Folder Structure check to see if LocalConfiguration.php is indeed writable and display an Error (red badge) if not

b) disable with a Warning / Error box all tools which somehow need to write to the LocalConfiguration in some way. The "ActionInterface" could provide a method to declare if "needs localconfiguration" write access and depending on that display the warning instead of handling the action as usual.
