I just tested and reread your original post.
auth.user_groups is a dict containing the id and role for each auth_group
for the logged in user
auth.user_group is a method of auth
from the book:
"auth.user_groups contains a dictionary where each key is the id of a group
of with the current logged in user is member of, the value is the
corresponding group role."
"auth.user_group(user_id) returns the id of the group uniquely associated
to the user identified by user_id."
This should work for both logged-in and logged-out users:
"if any (role in ['customer_service', 'admin'] for role in auth.user_groups.
itervalues()):"
