Bug Description

There should be a way to have a mapping between workflow states and permissions on the objectes which have this states.

For example: A common case may be, to let everyone post something, but a moderator have to approve the posting before it get's world-visible.

This is a very small workflow, many things are missing, but it will work as example:

"States-Chain"::

   INITIAL -auto-> pending -manual-> public

In the state 'pending', only Owner and Moderators should may allowed to see the message, but after it gets 'public', everybody should have the permission to see it!

Perhabes this should be done in automatic way by the workflow engine?
