        Different to the default implementation, this method also
        takes into account local roles set on any department connected
        to the context student.

        If the given principal has at least one of the
        `external_rolenames` roles granted for the external object, it
        additionally gets `additional_rolename` role for the context
        student.

        For the additional roles the `extra_attrib` and all its parent
        objects are looked up, because 'role inheritance' does not
        work on that basic level of permission handling.

        Some advantages of this approach:

        - we don't have to store extra local roles for clearance
          officers in ZODB for each student

        - when local roles on a department change, we don't have to
          update thousands of students; the local role is assigned
          dynamically.

        Disadvantage:

        - More expensive role lookups when a clearance officer wants
          to see an student form.

        This implementation is designed to be usable also for other
        contexts than students. You can inherit from it and set
        different role names to lookup/set easily via the static class
        attributes.
