Expectations
### What are we expecting to happen?
Maintenance mode becomes available in Application Settings UI.
What might happen if this goes wrong?
It's hard to imagine anything going wrong with this operation, because the feature is not used until maintenance mode is enabled by an admin.
What can we monitor to detect problems with this?
