How to restrict editing to user-specific fields?

I try to accomplish the following:

A database collects application forms. Then a team of reviewers has to decide which applicants are going to be selected.

In a simplified version this could be described as a checkbox per reviewer providing the choice between "accept" and "decline".

Now I want that each reviewer gets his own box which only he can edit, but view the settings of the other reviewers.

(in practice this is not limited to one field but encompasses three fields: a note, a mark and a rating)
How can this be accomplished with PHPr? I thought of a "custom view" built out of the contents of a set of "one per reviewer" tables with according access-permissions, but this appears to be tedious.

Basically it's about providing editing rights on individual fields depending on the current user.

Paul,
unfortunately there is no fields level security methods in the PHPRunner.

You can only create custom view for each user or group of users.
