Fixed an issue where some access checks would fail due to missing arguments. This happens when an org document is being checked for write access when trying to show the edit link on the document's show page.

21. Specifying 'choices' for a field

Most fields take a ``choices`` parameter, which should be a tuple of tuples
specifying which are the valid values for that field.

For each field that has ``choices``, a model instance gets a
``get_fieldname_display()`` method, where ``fieldname`` is the name of the
field. This method returns the "human-readable" value of the field.
