So, should my JS code examine the currently selected event_type option to see if it matches the string "probation interview?"
Have you thought about giving event_type a few different edit levels (in a single field - edit_level). That way you can edit anything (your level would be 1 higher than the highest level in the table). Each event has a level the user has to be in order to be able to edit it. Default level is the level of the user creating it. Some users would have higher levels, since they understand the data (or can make your life miserable).
If I understand the problem, that should work. If it won't work, I don't understand the problem. Which wouldn't be unusual - it's about 90 degrees, the end of a long day of debugging and "hello" is a major undertaking right now. But I run into this sort of thing a few times a day (I write a lot of web pages), and I usually just brute-force it. Elegant is nice, but sometimes it just has to work, and it has to work now. Once it's working and out there, you can play with it on a local server and code it so that the flow chart looks nice.
