Class based Property permissions?

Question

I have same property definitions in multiple classes. When the property is on document it whould be readonly for certain people so it has its own permission settings. When the same property is on Project it should be RW for everyone who can create Projects. Is there a way to do this? vb/metadatacard etc? 
 Separate properties as a solutions is not an option because that kills ability to inherit property values when dropping document to view or creating Project in view.

I don't think this is currently supported unfortunately, the only (ugly) way I can think of off the top my head is to write an event handler that checks the class, the user group etc. and throws an error if the edit in question was not allowed... 
 We have an improvement request (ID 126916) to enable using object type, class and workflow state to drive property permissions and I've added you as a requestor for this. Hopefully this is considered as a future enhancement as some point as it would be useful in many use cases.
