In the GUI I can restrict access to a page, for example pages can be restricted to control panel users. However, I can't see any way of doing that via the Basic Pages API. Am I missing something?

The background is that I am writing an app that will periodically sync a Nation with an external database. I thought a good way to provide feedback on the operation of the app would be to populate a basic page on the Nation with status information. I would prefer that the page was only accessable by control panel users. Any other ideas?
