different terms depending on $user data

[Lluís Forns Puigmartí-2]

I need groups of users sharing a taxonomy, but not terms; the group is
defined depending on their user profile; so I have been able to write
a module using hook_node_grants and hook_node_write_perms to separate
their content; but now I need them able to categorize it.

So a user inside "one group" should be able to add terms (if their
permissions allow him to do so) and that term should only be visible
to his group.

Any hint of how to achieve this is welcome.

Consider tac_lite.module as an example.  It uses hook_db_rewrite_sql() to hide some terms from some users.  Note that this hides the terms completely (i.e. when viewing a node you will not see the tags) rather than removing them only from forms (which should be done with hook_form_alter).

The first half of this can be done with the term_permissions module I  
wrote to use with Simplenews. It can limit terms to those in a role  
(or by user), but doesn't handle newly created terms like what might  
occur with free tagging. Feel free to submit a patch :)

If you are pre-defining all of your terms, this might work for you as-
is.
