> To summarise what's to be done here:
>  * we already have a HiddenObjectFacet (currently derived from a "hidden()" method on the object itself) that can be installed on the ObjectSpecification.  Make it a viewer responsibility that if this exists, hide any collections for that ObjectSpecification.
>  * create a further implementation for this facet that is derived from the set of permissions : if all props are invisible, infer that the object as a whole is.
>  * as belt-n-braces, implement a general tenancy evaluator that hides an object if its ObjectSpecification has this facet.
>  * similar to the work done in ISIS-2701, we'll should also introduce an `ApplicationUser_effectiveTypePermissions` mixin to surface this computed set.   Only secman admins should be able to see this collection.

> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
> A permission that vetoes the viewing of a type (such as in the example below) is not fully honored. In this concrete case a user that is being assigned a role with this permission (and no other roles with any permission that would contradict this permission) could still navigate to an entity page of a ApplicationUser and would see the title and the the icon and perhaps an empty metadata tab.
> The desired behavior would be the display of an error message saying "Not authorized or no such object".
