PmWiki's built-in authorization function puts in a number of
"pseudo attributes" as part of the returned page.  They are:

    $page['=auth'][$level]     - true if the visitor is authorized at $level
    $page['=passwd'][$level]   - the value of any password field for $level
    $page['=pwsource'][$level] - where the password field is coming from
                                 (e.g., site, group, page)

The (:pagelist:) code uses $page['=auth']['read'] to decide
if the visitor has read permission to the page.  It uses
$page['=passwd']['read'] to determine if the page has any sort
of read restrictions on it.

I'm pretty sure these have been around since at least 2.0.0, although
the pagelist.php script didn't start using them until recently.
