There is a prominent example: the "Find" tab in Zope's ZMI.

Looking at it, you will find that:

	"obj_permission" is a permission name
	"obj_roles" is a list of roles

	If both are specified, "ZopeFind" find the objects
	where the specified roles have the given permission.

The ZMI is a really rich repository of examples....
Often, they are even documented (as in the case of the
"Find" tab)....
