In the past, I have dealt with that situation by creating completely separate instances of Tiki, but it quickly becomes a nightmare to upgrade all of those sites separately.

Yes I think you can, this is what I am doing it is essentially using the 
perspective + category+groups to create a "Jail".  The permission issue 
will have to be resolved I think (LPH ?)  but we can still use 
"workspaces" to channel the experience.  I came across the problem of 
the permissions when I tried to apply comments to one perspective only. 
  I added comments to the perspective  (search & drag) then gave 
permissions via category to the appropriate groups, it didn't work.  So 
I had to apply the permissions globally to the appropriate group.    I 
hope this is clear.

  I think the essential idea is good but it may be still in shakedown:

workspace:    perspective in a category jail, groups assigned to the 
category, permissions assigned to the groups in the category.
