The product "DCWorkflow" (in the CMF CVS repository) does something similar. It modifies the role-permission mapping based on the current state. Thus, it is maybe not yet sufficiently dynamic for you. But perhaps, it shows you a way to go. If it does not, you may look at "PermissionMapping". This is a device that can map permissions to other permissions. Almost surely, it can be made a ComputedAttribute and then be completely dynamic.
