Say I have a clearance category.

With these memberlevels for my store.
Member
Premier
Wholesale

I don't want wholesale to have access to the clearance section when they are logged in.

Right now I do this by manually creating all my side nav links and putting if/else memberlevel code around the clearance link. This is a half a$$ed way to do this as it doesn't handle products put in the cart from that category before login.
Right and I cannot see this would be so hard to implement, basically the same thing as been done with Products, Categories etc. a new table xcart_customer_memberships and store the memberships there in a true relational way, the rest of the code is more or less in place as this been implemented for Products, Categories and Discounts. Then instead of a simple varible with the customer membership to chaeck agains, an array is used. I think it would be pretty straith forward, a great improvement and not too much of a change or bug prone.

Xcart please this would be sooo cool - should I make this a 'bug'?
