With the new possibilities offered by read-only fields in the admin interface it would be really convenient to use the admin interface even for users having not full rights to alter a model.
An example is in the software I am writing: a person can add his own drafts and propose them to be converted into articles, but once they are promoted can't modifiy them any longer. Anyway it would be nice to have the possibility of inspecting published articles without having the need to switch between the admin interface and the "public pages". Or you can be in a group having read-only access to a Model. I know this can be implemented adding a custom can_view permission and overrinding admin.ModelAdmin.changelist_view which sets all the fields as readonly... but it is more a hack than a solution (at least to my eyes). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
