I thought about this approach but my concern was that this method could 
introduce a delay on-screen whereby fields might appear to be (or 
possibly even actually be) editable for a brief time during the page load.

Overriding the isEditable() function should do the trick but I am trying 
to minimise the number of files that need overriding.

I was hoping Prasad or Uma might have some suggestions to improve what I 
see as the only way right now:

{Detail,Edit}RecordStructure.php->Block.php->Field.php

It would be interesting to see this approach using Ajax/Javascript too. 
Am I mistaken in the "timing" issue I foresee?

Thanks
