Is your feature request related to a problem?

Context of the feature request: The publication of particular attributes in WMS/WFS can be controlled statically in the qgis project file. It is not possible to control the access to attributes in the geoportal based on roles. If a layer has a number of attributes, and some of them shall only be accessible by spedific users, two layers have to be defined.

Describe the solution you'd like

We would like an extension of the access granting concept to attributes for layers provided by a qgis server. It should be possible to control the access to specific attributes (i.e. a subset of the layer's attributes) in WMS/WFS by means of roles.
