[cgiapp] Subroutine permissions

["Joel Gwynn" <suppressed>]

OK.  I think I figured out what I really need to know.

I basically want my setup function to be my permissions manager.  Inside
of setup, I'm looking up the user based on the session id, and storing
the user's permissions in a hash.  The permissions refer to subroutines,
not run-modes.  I really want to be able to  have a fine-grained control
ove which users can run which subs.

How do I find out which subroutine is being requested?  ie, if my
run-modes are as follows:
   $self->run_modes(
		     login => \&login,
		     authenticate => \&authenticate,
		     list_projects => \&list_projects,
		     add_project => \&list_projects,
		     edit_project => \&list_projects
			...
			}

I want to find out if my user has permission to run &list_projects.  If
I know that the run-mode is called 'add_project', how do I determine
what sub is going to be called.

Sorry if I'm being too dense about this.
