[support] Input field based on user field data?

[Joel Willers]

Couldn't you do some sort of Content Profile and Node Reference link? Could have a Content Type Color and then link to it as a selection. If you need more controls, you can add them as needed, like Node Reference Create, etc.

Simple approach: You could use PHP to retrieve the allowed values from the current user's profile. Place that PHP code in the allowed values field of the content type.

If the user changes her favorite colors and then edits an existing node, it may cause loss of data (if that node had a color that was removed from their favorites, and hence is no longer a valid selection). You'll have to decide what to do in that and similar corner cases.
