What about the way Pmwiki.org does Site/PageActions? Only the actions 
you are allowed to do show, so if you're not allowed to do anything, you 
see nothing. Maybe add "Current user can do the following on this page."

It won't help if the user is on a page they have only read permission 
for, but it will help for the pages they can do more on.
