You drastically restrict access to the "LocalFS" content (e.g. by
granting the "Access contents information" and "View" permissions
only for "Manager") and provide access to it via a Python Script
with proxy role "Manager".
This script can check any conditions you would like to be fulfilled
before it grants access.
