Permissions - Controlled based on content property values

Are there any plans to add a level of control to the permissions based on content property values in any of the three versions (Community, Pro, Enterprise)?  For example, if 'State' were a property value, I may want to limit access to content that contains only 'FL' for a given user or group of users. 

I looked at the roadmap but I didn't see this addressed specifically.  I also looked at the 'PermissionSchema.dtd' but I did not see any mechanisms in the current implementation for limiting the permissions based on property values.

Hi

There are no permissions at the property level: read permissoin applies to all properties.

To allow control of permissions as you want:

1) There could be rules/actions that set permissions - although I don't think there are any at the moment

2) You could use dynamic authorities - like owner.
e.g Assign the required access to the authority "State-FL".
Then have a dynamic authority that reports this authority for any user in some set - maybe another group, or permission test for the user, or all users - if the attribute is set as required. A bit messy but would work.
