Feature Request: Automatic Download of License Terms for Restricted Files

[bgunia]

Overview of the Feature Request
Increasing the likelihood that downloaders of restricted files will reviewed the Terms of Access. This may involve multiple new features/enhancements.

What kind of user is the feature intended for?
data downloader

What inspired the request?
At Johns Hopkins University, we are likely going to be permitting restricted files in our Repository in the coming year. Thus far, we only accept data that can be open. We've been going to various compliance offices at our institution and getting feedback on our proposed workflow. There are concerns that that pop-up box that contains the Terms of Access for Restricted Files is too small and will not be read.

What existing behavior do you want changed?
The pop-up box with the Terms of Access for Restricted Files could be expanded. See image.

Any brand new behavior do you want to add to Dataverse?
Ideally, there would be a way to configure our installation to automatically download a copy of the terms in a separate text file. It would be simplest if both the restricted file and text file came together in a zip file, but this may not work for every institution's storage configuration. Perhaps if a zip file is not possible, we would want the license text file to have a name that unambiguously marries it to the restricted file, including version, in case Terms of Access change through time.

Another, likely simpler approach, is to have a button that asks downloaders if they want to download the Terms of Access for Restricted Files. There would need to be some customizable language around this button explaining why they should download the license file.
