How to get user permissions of user currently in Django admin site

I have certain fields that I would only like displayed to certain admins when they are in the admin site. I am looking into using list_display to do this but first need to figure out a way of determining which user is currently viewing the admin site.

Unless you pass the request object everywhere, the solution is generally to use thread local storage and some middleware that updates the value on each request.
