Allow user to delete error messages from GUI.
Steps to reproduce:
- While logged in to Qiita, open https://qiita.ucsd.edu/study/description/10283
- In the Data Types section, click on "Metagenomic", then click on the "ID 4953" public prep
- The prep loads as expected, but I also see the following error message at the top of the page:

This doesn't seem to be a major problem, but it is kind of disconcerting.
This means someone tried to delete an artefact on the page and received the warning - not necessarily you because the message will NEVER go away.

Huh, I didn't know that! It's good to know I'm not messing something up at least :)
The behavior of the error message never going away seems strange to me. I imagine it will confuse other people, also. It might be worth only showing it once, if that's possible (but if not I understand).
"Traditionally" we have left those messages on the screen and don't allow the user to delete them until another action is performed; the message is erased after another job is successful. As of today, I think it will be good to allow the user to delete them. @ackermag, do you agree?
Yes I agree. It is very confusing to the average user.

Thank you both, changing issue title to reflect this.
Just a quick message about this issue. The main complexity to fix this issue is that we currently are not passing the redis-key to the bootstrapAlert JS method that displays the error in the webpage. Thus, we are going to need to update/fix the 60+ bootstrapAlert calls to pass this value so we can pass that redis-key information for delete.
