This is where it gets a bit convoluted to avoid emacs-wiki's table
handling.  The actual Mason should end up looking like

    This should be visible. But <&| authz.mas:content, 'users',
    [qw(wibble)] &>this should not</&>.

The <&: gets changed to <&| to avoid being marked up as a table.  I
know it's inelegant, but I'm open to ideas.

I can't think of any situation where Mason would get installed by
default or without you knowing it, so you probably don't have it.  For
people who aren't interested in Mason, it ought to be pretty easy to
make planner-authz support SSI or PHP.  The only reason it doesn't now
is that I don't use those things.
