Created a new Role and assigned a new user to it with EditMode Access turned on: impossible to access the Edit mode

I created a new "Validator" role from scratch (basically the same as publisher but only with the first step approval). Then I created a new user and assigned this role to him on the root of my site (and also assigned it to "users" in general by mistake - at least every logued users should be now able to enter the edit mode).

However, while I can access to the contribute mode with my new user (similar to publisher, contribute mode was also turned on), the Edit mode is not available (present on the header but nothing happens when you click on it)

Following exception in the console
