Usually, node permissions can be retrieved through user_access("edit any $nodetype content"), yet there are contrib modules out there that store their permissions differently. Latest code tries node_access('update', $nodetype), yet the function will only accept nodetype as its second argument for the 'create' operation.

I have reverted to user_access('edit any ' . $nodetype . ' content') where it applies, then added needed conditions to support faq module:
if $nodetype == 'faq' && user_access('edit faq'))

Yet it is not abstract enough, and won't support other non-standard contributed modules. I suggest a helper function, since this list will potentially grow, and the view will not be automatically updated.

alternatively, we could create permissions automatically for managing each node type.

That would be a kind of a noise, but we need this ASAP, before we can finally get a stable version
