The only way I can think of to solve this type if issue is through a workflow. I have used comalatech workflow in the past for managing complex review processes, and you can use it to set page permissions based on events, assigning them to individuals or groups. Would take some work to write the workflow, but could then be fairly automated after that.
I stand corrected: view restrictions are inherited, edit restrictions are not.
So you're only options are to monitor the space and manually lock down each newly-created page OR break it up into different spaces and lock them down by group.
