I don't think it's going to far. If certain links should not show up
in some cases, but should in others, I would provide an example for
those. If it's important enough to hide, it's important enough to make
sure it's hidden for the right reasons.

I would probably drive these with a view spec that looked like this....
describe "your/view" do
it "should always have a link to view the item"
context "when the member owns the item" do
it "should have a link to edit the item"
it "should have a link to delete the item"
end
context "when the member owns the item" do
it "should have a link to edit the item"
it "should have a link to invite ..."
end
end
