This hook makes it easy to add custom permission check (like for FCEs, 
where admin can let users to create oonly certain FCEs). But the 
function for checking permissions exists already for a long time. I do 
not know why it is not used by old page module. May be simply forgotten.

Check is as simple as:

if ($GLOBALS['BE_USER']->recordEditAccessInternals('tt_content', 
$idOrRow)) {
	// Add edit/delete icons
}

The same function is uses when saving and if it returns false, alt_doc 
displays error. So I just call it before editing in TV to make TV more 
user friendly :)
