I ran into a similar thing with BlackMagic plugin - the one that lets you 
have field-level permissions. Wanted to grant access to financial fields to 
the finance folk - but not the whole company.  I am pondering whether it's 
a good idea to just add a feature to trac to create a group of permissions 
which are not available to TRAC_ADMIN.
