repoze.what-pylons must provide a function that receives the path to a controller and returns a
boolean depending on whether the user is allowed to visit that controller (evaluating the
controller-wide predicates (if any) and the predicate specific to the action via the @require
decorator). Example with Genshi: 
  <a py:if="can_access('/admin/')" href="/admin/">
      This is a link for admins
  </a>

 The can_access() function above represents the function in question.
