Invoking Permission Services In Screen Widgets

[Adrian Crum]

It would be helpful (from a code reuse standpoint) to enable the screen widgets to use the new
permission services. I was thinking it would be cool to have something like:

<section>
   <permission-service service-name="..." main-action="..." resource-description="..."
fail-section="fail-section"/>
   <!-- actions to run, stuff to display when permission service returns true -->
</section>
<section name="fail-section">
   <!-- actions to run, stuff to display when permission service returns false -->
</section>

Any thoughts?

Wouldn't that be best in the condition block? Perhaps an alternate  
for of the has-permission thingy there.

Or even better, check out the "if-service-permission" element. Looks  
like it may already exist. ;)
