Going in a completely different direction than you’d planned, but for the same goal, what about making a script (shell, Python, or otherwise) that could validate all the constraints and call the scontrol program if appropriate, and then run that script via “sudo” as one of the regular users?

Do you think it would be feasible to implement it as a plugin, or that would necessarily require modification of SLURM code? In case of a plugin, are there different entry point other than job submit? Thanks in advance! Paolo
