Associating an “author” with a custom taxonomy

I was able to come up with a work around! First, I used Role Scoper to limit a user account to a specific term – in this case, a Ministry Representative is limited to the name of their Ministry in the “ministries” taxonomy. Then, I used the WPAlchemy class to create a custom metabox that would list the terms and, since it only returned one (theirs), I would have it already selected. Next, I hid it via an admin stylesheet.

The effect is that, when a Ministry Representative creates a new Event or Opportunity, their ministry name is already selected (though they don’t see it) and the association is made on save. It requires a bit of work on the part of the admins to setup the term and I would still like a cleaner way of doing the same if it exists.

If anyone would like further details on my work-around, let me know.
