There is a jira issue at https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/FCREPO-1008 "Filtering of search results by access constraints" which is intended to do the work that you are asking for. It is far from trivial to change fedora-server.jar for fcrepo-serverXXX.jar. With your insight and interest in it, you may help me or do some of the work, would you like that?
