Agreed. Personally I'd be happy with being able to restrict
read and write for "non-members". It's fairly simple to do
this globally though, without big changes in MoinMoin, and
to do it on a page level you can set up three wikis: a
public, a protected and a private. Then you simply use
InterWiki to address between them. That way you will have
to be explicit about addressing, but I think that is a
GoodThing. When you have full permissions it's very easy
to publish links to restricted pages, and people won't
be able to follow links as you intended.
