Trying to access $GLOBALS['BE_USER'] in FE results in logs being flooded with warnings

[sypets]

Core: Error handler (FE): PHP Warning: Undefined global variable $BE_USER in /var/www/mysite/public/typo3conf/ext/gridelements/Classes/Backend/LayoutSetup.php line 749
I have lots of warnings like these in the "Log" (sys_log).

Unfortunately, I don't have a stack trace for this. It is strange that this is accessed in the FE, shouldn't be or there should be a check there.

code:

   747      public function getBackendUser(): ?BackendUserAuthentication
   748      {
   749          return $GLOBALS['BE_USER'];
   750      }

Versions

• gridelemens: 11.1.0
• TYPO3 latest 11.5.33

This seems to be used by "setLanguageService" only, which again is used in BE context only, so it should be enough to add
