This is entirely wrong. If you touch the ZMI permissions on individual
content you are doing bad.
Please don't do bad. Doing bad hurts you and us - because you are using the
software wrong and will give Plone a bad reputation.
Two ways to accomplish what you want:
- Use workflow for you content type!
- Create a new "Factory Type Info" in the portal_types folder called
CliffsFolder
- Then copy and paste the folder_workflow and create cliffs_workflow and
assign the workflow to CliffsFolder only. Then have the initial state of
the cliffs_workflow folder be the correct permissions.
- Let people create the new content types; if more people want to have
different roles use the Sharing tab on the folder!
Lets all stop doing bad in 2006!

p.s. I'm joking - I imagine you don't know about
portal_types/portal_workflow and I know your not consciously doing bad
*wink*
