Comment(by azaozz):

 DD32 is right, looks like we can either have a customized message or
 introduce a small function to check permissions and output a standard
 ('You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page') error
 message.

 Don't think we need the complexity of a `check_authorization()` function
 that tries to construct custom messages, won't be useful for plugins too.
 And it becomes redundant if we have to pass the full message to it, better
 to leave it as is.
