Whether you provide such functionality outside of the admin or inside it, you are using the same django.contrib.auth, so "trust" is not the reason why you cannot do what you want to do within django.contrib.admin. If the permissions system cannot be "trusted", then it shouldn't be part of the django release. In all likelihood, the original poster zweb can do what he/she wants to do without compromising the system. Django developers wouldn't have relied on permissions in the admin section if it weren't solid enough. Regards.
