Comment:

 patch potentially introduces loads of bugs:

  - the check on is_admin() seems kind of weird.
  - $author_query is pointless if the author can view private pages and/or
 edit others' page
  - I'm pretty sure the current parent needs to be passed to the query.
 (haven't tested, but if a non-privileged author creates a page whose
 parent is owned by someone else and becomes private or pending, what
 happens when he edits it?)
