The decorators

@auth.requires_login()
@auth.requires_membership('group')
@auth.requires_permission('type','table'record_id')

work on any function, work on gae and are efficient.

You mail also want to build functions like

def record(query):
     if auth.has_permission(...):
          return db(query).select(....)
     else:
          return db(query)(subquery)(....)

Hope this helps.
