Restrict editing of issue based on a custom field value? (issue security for edits)

[Edward Sandstig]

Similar to the way that you can set an issue security level and then restrict viewing of issues, we're wondering if we can make it so that certain issues can only be edited by the project admins? We want users to be able to clone these three issues, but they shouldn't be able to transition or edit them.

Setting up conditions in the workflow doesn't seem appropriate, since they'd only be triggered if the user tries to transition the issues. Any suggestions on how we might go about this?

Hi @Edward Sandstig - You may want to look at workflow properties:

Specifically, jira.premission.* may do the trick.
