function field_permission_example_permission

Implements hook_permission().

We want to let site administrators figure out who should be able to view, edit, and administer our field.

Field permission operations can only be view or edit, in the context of one's own content or that of others. Contrast with content types where we also have to worry about who can create or delete content.
