As always, the idea comes to me just as I click send... I think
non-talk namespaces generally have even IDs and talk namespaces odd
ones. If that really is the case, then you can do a foreach loop and
check if the id is even or odd (using "foo % 2 == 0" or whatever it is
in php) and set the protection accordingly.
