[wp-hackers] Limiting ability to add terms to taxonomies

[Dion Hulse (dd32)]

In that case, I'd say filter it on the fly,
if ($pagenow = post-new.php) { return 'do_not_allow'; }
hooked into the cap system, It's a better solution (to me) than rewriting  
new metaboxes, which will potentially have to be re-done with WordPress  
upgrades to fit in or whatever.
