One benefit of News Articles is the ability to pre-publish articles by setting a future Publish Date. The articles are then hidden from Latest Articles-listings etc.

BUT the articles are visible when you have the URL. And since you only need the ID of the article it does not take a rocket scientist to peep future articles in advance just by changing the ID in the URL.

I would like NA to check when displaying a published article if it is indeed published, in other words has the PublishTime and date been passed (server time). The only one who should be able to look at an article (that is Published but the Publishtime has not passed) is persons in admin role (so we can see the resulting article displayed with pics etc.

Without this functionality the module loose an important part of use. If I have a good story and want to publish it public tomorrow but want to do the work today - I don't want to risk that someone can read the yet not published story and "steal it" and "publish" it before I do... :-)
