Given an AFS directory and a userid, is there a direct way to understand 
what are the user capabilities, according to the directory ACL?

Of course one can prepare a script which reads the directory ACL and the 
user membership to PTS groups and make a combined analysis to discover 
if  the user can, let's say, read the files in the directory, if any , 
but I wonder if there is  some OpenAFS command that provides directly 
the answer, as of course the client has to know all that..
