I've looked at a couple ways, but I'm not sure what is the best strategy. I'm thinking creating a custom D2W Assignment subclass is the way, but I'm not sure.
If you aren't storing them, you can probably come up with a decent solution using a single assignment. It would just need some sort of permission manager object to consult. Maybe that comes from the rules or maybe a thread local.
What I was thinking of is something similar to the QueryDatasourceDelegate where you could define a delegate class that would have the logic to filter the array of displayPropertyKeys prior to them being returned by the D2WContext.
Simply create a rule that defines what delegate it should use to filter the displayPropertyKeys prior to returning them. The logic of why or how to filter is entirely up to the developer - it could be based on user preference or permissions triggering it would be controlled by the rule system.

What you've described actually exists! It's called an Assignment ;-)

Okay, maybe I'm missing a fundamental concept (no shocker there). So how do I tell it to go use the delegate instead of providing a list of keys manually in a rule?
