Grid Edit overriding Form Rules

Hi All, 

I have a form rule that basically shuts down all fields on a record once it has been checked, making it view only to the end user. Unfortunately, we have users that like to update and/or copy their records in Grid Edit, and as we all know, Grid Edit overrides form rules. Without excluding these checked records from a Grid Edit report, are there any workarounds for displaying records in Grid Edit but keeping them view only?

Are you willing to set up a Custom Permission Rule to block editing of the record for certain Roles if some formula condition calculates to false? 

For example create a field called [Regular staff can edit?] as a formula checkbox field and then hook a Custom Role permission to Modify based on that being true.
