Do you mean you want to do that? 'Cause it sounds like you already have. 
It should look something like this, in any case:

I think you'll have to drop into an External Method to say

(with parameters: someList)

from AccessControl.User import nobody
user = nobody
retList = []
for obj in someList:
  if user.hasRole(obj,'View'):
    retList.append(obj)
return retList

Then restrict this External method to only Managers via the ZMI.

There are ways to allow a TTW script to import like this, if you really 
want to.
