Checking for a role or a permission in a context
There are two very useful methods to check for certain security settings offered by the Plone API. First, to check if a user has a certain role, the following snippet can be used:
roles_user_has = portal_membership.getCandidateLocalRoles(here)
To check if a user has a certain permission, this API method can be used:
portal_membership.checkPermission('Manage portal', here)
