[Zope] New zope feature?

[Anders Qvist]

(Haven't researched this one, so it might have been suggested already.)

What about an DTML directive

<!--#role somerole--><!--#/role-->

which would be a specialized if clause, which includes its content only if
the current caller has the specified role?

It is often a very convenient way to create administration GUI of a
website to simply include links/buttons to the respective administration
pages right where the data you want to administer is displayed. Eg: normal
users see only a listing of people and their phone numbers and mail
addresses, whereas the administrator also have a little link at the end of
each entry to a page where the entry can be edited.
