You can include logic to set the readable and writable attributes of 
particular fields to True/False depending on Auth group membership. For 
example:

db.define_table('mytable', Field('myfield', readable=False, writable=False))

if auth.has_membership('admin'):
    db.mytable.myfield.readable = db.mytable.myfield.writable = True

I suppose you could write a decorator that does that, but it's not clear 
there would be any benefit over the simple approach above.
