-------- DESCRIPTION
---------------------------------------------------------
The Node View Permissions module adds permissions "View own content" and
"View any content" for each content type on the permissions page.
However, it only implements hook_node_access() and not hook_query_alter(),
which means any listing of nodes does not respect the node view permission.
