See if "Everybody" or "Guest" have permissions.  Generally speaking, you're
looking for ids with access which don't require authentication.  For 
pre-defined groups, this comes down to the two I mentioned.  Theoretically, 
others could be created that fit this definition but limit access to just 
those within a defined group.  I haven't tested the notion.  It's just an 
idea that seems workable.
