That facility already exists in PTKDemo.  Look at the addMember()
method of DemoMembershipTool.  It creates a PortalFolder for the member
and sets up non-acquired permissions which prevent anonymous access. 
When an item is marked "published", special permission settings are set
up by WorkflowTool that allow anonymous access to that item only.

Catalog searches are filtered based on access privileges, BTW.
