Can individual fields on an issue screen be enabled / disabled based on the user?

Question

Can individual fields on an issue screen be enabled / disabled based on the user?  Kind of like how Available Workflow Actions are visible or not based on the Project Roles the user is assigned to.

Currently we are running Enterprise Edition, Version: 3.13-#330 but will be upgrading to JIRA 5 in the near future, if that makes a difference to your responses.

Thanks,
Brad.

+ 1 for the behaviours plugin like Jobin said.

This is basically what you will need to do except use the FormField.hidden instead.

Field level security is still a missing feature in JIRA (even in 5.0). You are better of using Javascript to do that and Behvaiors plugin is a useful plugin too.
