Got it.

Although note that the line count advantage is down to only one,
since each content generator needs to make a call to shove title
(and perhaps other info) into the Hit() info dictionary.

Another approach to locking off big chunks of your app is to do
something like:

class SomeDirectory(Directory):

    def get_exports():
        ensure_signed_in()
        yield ('', '_q_index', None, None)
        yield ('secret', 'grant_raise', 'Give a Raise', None)
        yield ('fire-them', 'fire_all_staff', None, None)

Cheers
