Sam,
   This is not really a possible goal. Our python websubmissions use 
egroups and email lists to restrict actions - and may use any arbitrary 
mixture within a submission as a function of the category. Modification
restrictions are even more complicated - in general depend on the actual
metadata of a given record as well as category, email and egroups. Even
more than that, different fields are available depedending on who the
user is - this allows powerusers to manage documents of normal users..
   
I disagree with the notion that a websubmit tree (of all the things a 
user could do) is even very useful.

Sorry to be so negative..

Tony
