I'm interested in the following output with the taxonomy access control module: Category A is public, anonymous can access, and Cat B is private, anonymous can't access, I don't want public/anonymous to see Cat B even exists.

I turn navigation off for anonymous users, registered users enabled navigation.

When anonymous users go to category A, navigation is displayed, listing Cat B. Anonymous users can't access Cat B, but it is listed in navigation.

Understand taxonomy access control is separate from this module; the two are related. Ensuring privacy to some taxonomy would include not seeing that it exists?

Title: Support for Taxonomy Access Control Module? » Filter menu items which are not viewable
Version: » x.y.z

Enabling menu.module to filter menu items which point to nodes which are not viewable by the active user is desperately needed by anyone who uses taxonomy_access.module (or any kind of access control).

I agree. I need this for an enterprise level client collaboration system. For my system, unauthorized users should not see anything except the login (probably could do with front_page.module), and users should only see nodes to which they have access in the menu. The Simple Access.module allows definition of access groups, so this works to specify which users are clients and which are employees; unfortunately, all users can see all nodes in the navigation menu. They just can't access those nodes if they don't have permission. I want private nodes to really be private in that private nodes shouldn't even appear in the menu to certain access groups.

I would just use TWiki (http://www.twiki.org/) but the server requirements are steep, so Drupal seems to be the next best thing with ProWorkflow (http://www.proworkflow.com/) being a last resort. Hopefully, open source efforts like Drupal can satisfy corporate needs.

This functionality would also solve the problem with "Create content" menu item being visible to everyone with "access content" right.
