[wp-hackers] is there a way to make sure that a shortcode can be used only by certain userroles?

[Jesse Friedman]

You could filter the content when the post is saved and if the user doesn't
have the right permissions, then I strip the shortcode or present a warning.

you could try using
http://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Filter_Reference/content_save_pre,
then maybe some regex to find the shortcode and strip it out
