In the future, we may implement read access controls, at which point the
client won't know ahead of time whether or not it needs to
authenticate. So this doesn't seem like a great direction to go in.
(It could try both, I suppose, but that sounds tricky to implement,
since you could hit the "permission denied" in the middle of some
complicated operation.)
