Hide app menu when permissions don't allow viewing apps

I've created a new role without rest_apps_management and rest_apps_view capabilities.

It works more or less because the users with such role are indeed unable to manage apps but I believe the UI should hide entirely the 'app' menu in this case otherwise users see the menu items but everytime they click, get the following message:

Fail: [HTTP 403] Client is not authorized to perform requested action; https://127.0.0.1:8089/servicesNS/a999901/launcher/data/modular-inputs?count=-1
Details: None

Is there any way to hide this menu for users with a specific role ?

Is it in splunk 5 or 6 ? In splunk 5, I'm also able to override the default XML views but in splunk 6 I still have not found the way to do it properly.
