directtoweb and readOnlyEntityNames rule

I'm trying to remove the edit/delete buttons from the UI of a D2W app by using the "readOnlyEntityNames" rule. I'd like to make the result of this to be conditional on a Session method "noEdits()".


I put this rule in my d2w.d2wmodel (using RuleEditor):

      {
            author = 50;
            class = "com.webobjects.directtoweb.Rule";
            lhs = {
                class = com.webobjects.eocontrol.EOKeyComparisonQualifier;
                leftKey = "session.noEdits";
                rightKey = 1;
                selectorName = "isEqualTo";
            };
            rhs = {
                class = "com.webobjects.directtoweb.Assignment";
                keyPath = readOnlyEntityNames;
                value = (User, Group);
            };
        }

This is the *only* rule in this file. FYI, the only rule in user.d2wmodel is
{
class = com.webobjects.directtoweb.Rule;
author = 100;
rhs = {
class = com.webobjects.directtoweb.Assignment;
keyPath = look;
value = "BasicLook";
};
}


D2W.factory().newSignificantKey("session.noEdits") has been added to Application.java

The edit/delete buttons always show however. When tracing the rule firing, I only see the default readOnlyEntityNames rule:

   ****** fire : *true* => readOnly=isEntityReadOnly (-1)
   ****** fire : *true* => readOnlyEntityNames=() (com.webobjects.foundation.NSMutableArray) (-1)

If I rummage through the D2WModel _rules array at runtime, I can find my rule. If I manually call the fire() method on my rule, I get the expected ("User", "Group") array.

Anyone have any ideas on what I'm doing wrong? Suggestions on how to do this easily? (Editing the rules is pretty much out of the question, this is a boiled down version of an existing app whose rule file is 18000+ lines - but "no code", jeez!!).

Steve
