To achieve this we wrote a custom AuthInterceptor which we added to the default stack, which adds some core authorisation functionality - add user object (with roles) to the session, add a custom user menu (based on roles) to the session and checks authorisation for the action.
It's pretty straight forward with Interceptors. Mark Mernard has an example on his blog which is a good starting point and WW in Action also has a good example, just download the source code from the manning site and look for the sample AuthInterceptor code.
