If all you're worrying about is the public display and/or non-admin
forms, it's fairly simple to do the necessary check in your own code
based on data stored in the model object. Depending on the exact
nature of the check, you might even be able to write a decorator to
handle it for you.

In the admin it's basically not possible right now, but will become
very easy in the not-too-distant future.
