Best way to make data-binding conditional [message #1802524]

It it possible to make data-binding conditional, e.g. only synchronize between model and target in case an IObservableValue<Boolean> is true?

Some background: We are running an application which hides SWT widgets in case the user has no permissions to view the data contained in it. However we observed hiding is not enough - what might work for native platforms breaks for RAP.
At least when using RAP the data is still in the JSON sent from the server to the client, so in case the user has no permissions I would like data binding to assign "" instead of real values to the widgets.

You can use a ComputedValue as an intermediate value. Or the ISideEffects class might be even better. There are some examples at the snippets page:
