Just to be clear, (:if authid:) just tells you if the user is
authenticated -- it doesn't (yet) check for specific ids.  But
one can write:

    (:if authid:)* [[LoginPage]]
    (:if auth edit:)* [[{$FullName}?action=diff | Page History]]
    (:if auth edit:)* [[{$FullName}?action=edit | Edit]]
    (:if auth upload:)* [[($FullName}?action=upload | Attachments]]
    (:ifend:)

and this shows a LoginPage link if the author has not yet logged in.
