If you put (:if ! auth edit:)(:noleft:)(:ifend:) in your site-wide
header (dunno what it's named in your skin), that will suppress the
left SideBar until the user has edit privileges.  Making it
conditional on some other authorization should work in a similar way.

Whatever conditional you settle on, the trick is in where to put it.
On the Site/AuthForm doesn't do.  On the site's left SideBar itself
might actually work, and in some part of the side-wide header does.

hth.
