Provide notifications to administrators of managed Chrome devices when a users actions are blocked by policy

Project Member Reported by alu...@chromium.org, Aug 11 2017

Issue description

Description:
Provide notifications to administrators of managed Chrome devices when a users actions are blocked by policy. This could be email alert notifications or available in a log that can be pulled via API


Use case:
Device and user policies block and prevent a user from doing something that is against company policy such as URL black listing. If a URL is blocked from going to a website, it would be useful information to know and alert the administrator which users are trying to do something and are being prevented by policy.


Motivation:
Security. It is helpful for security minded administrators to know when a user is doing something that is purposefully blocked by policy. They can find out if a user is trying to do something that is legitimate for work and enable it, or action when a user is doing something they shouldn't be. 

Existing workarounds:

For URL blocking, a customer may want to use a proxy or filter and not use the URL black listing in the Admin Console. If a customer doesn't have web filtering device, or it does't make sense to route traffic there due to network constraints then they may need to look at developing an extension.
