[support] Limit editing of custom cck fields

[sebastian]

Mutuku,

It is 100% possible to do what you want, your errors can only be due to 
misconfiguration.

If you get a denied message, then it means that you need to ensure that 
they can edit that content type.

If you make a field viewable, but not editable, it will then not appear 
as part of the edit form.

You don't need to give someone super admin rights to edit any node, just 
the rights to edit that specific node.

If you are missing links for that person to reach the node's edit form, 
then this is a separate problem, resolved by adding node edit links to 
the node.tpl.php and/or to the view [Node:edit node link]
