??? - You didn't really understand the solution.

Your editors just create and edit content elements - nothing more, nothing
less.
Restricted content is placed in the column "normal" (you can rename this
column to "restricted" if you like), while "free" content is placed in the
column "left" (renamed to "free").

Then you place just this TypoScript as ext+ Template into the root page of
your restricted area:

temp.otherContent = COA
temp.otherContent {
    10 = COA
    10 {
        if.isFalse.numRows < styles.content.getLeft
        10 = RECORDS
        10 {
            # get your default record here
        }
    }
    20 < styles.content.getLeft
    30 < styles.content.loginform
}

[loginUser = *]
page.10.subparts.content < styles.content.get
[else]
page.10.subparts.content < temp.otherContent
[global]


This will show at least a loginform and (if available) content from the left
column, where your editors can place some teasers.
You setup a default element, that is shown if there is no content in the
left column, so that your editors don't have to create teasers for every
page.
Only if the user is logged in, he will see the content coming from the
"restricted" column.

So what is the "not so easy" part for your editors now? - IMHO every other
approach can't be as easy as this solution.
