is_in_beta function

[jayfk]

I have the view serving my domain root in HUNGER_ALWAYS_ALLOW_VIEWS. For non-beta users I'd like to display a landing page.

I could'nt find a obvious way to do this using django-hunger, so I decided to write a simple function that checks if the user is in beta that is called in the template.

def is_in_beta(self):
    from hunger.models import Invitation
    if not self.is_authenticated():
       return False

    if self.is_staff or self.is_superuser:
        return True

    return Invitation.objects.filter(user=self, invited__isnull=False).exists()

Will this suffice? If yes, It'd nice to have the function in hunger.utils or somewhere else.

It should probably be a bit more complicated than that. See https://github.com/joshuakarjala/django-hunger/blob/master/hunger/middleware.py#L94 for a bit of caching. However what you have should work at a basic level so I'd appreciate any pull requests.
