Right. The admin site's use of permissions is described here: http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/authentication/#permissions and it doesn't include any view/read permissions. The Django admin site code assumes any User with "is_staff" set to True can view/read everything. It only uses permissions to limit the ability to add and change objects. Any ideas on how could I implement that in the cleanest possible way? This is not a way in which the admin site is meant to be extended/customized. The admin site is meant for trusted users. If you're looking to limit what certain users can see, I believe you should be developing your own custom views for this, not trying to make the admin site do it.
