Hello, I'm currently working on an application based on RCP which needs to hide/show parts of the UI depending on permissions granted to users. A proper way for most parts of the UI is using commons expressions to enable/change visibility for the active user depending on her access rights. For example, the visibility of commands can be easily changed following this way. Now I'm considering to integrate CNF in order to enable users navigating in our application. In order to show only content extensions the active user is currently allowed to see I would need a similar mechanism also for CNF. By now, the visibility of content extensions for a specific viewer is controlled using include and exclude patterns based on extension identifers. A more general approach might be achieved by using commons expressions to deal with content/filter visibility. This would introduce much more flexibility and would also enable a variaty of usage scenarios beside security related stuff. Kind regards and best wishes Markus
