[Framers] Toggling Condition Indicators Individually

Here's my suggestion: Create a document for each display you need. In that documents, redefine the conditions so that all are black (not As Is) and the one has a color. Then Import Condition Settings from one of those docs to your doc.

Subject: [Framers] Toggling Condition Indicators Individually

Earlier I got excellent advice on how to build conditional expressions. I'm hoping someone here has thoughts on the above. This question actually concerns the same set of files with 8 or 10 different condition tags in it.

My boss has a hard time remembering what each condition indicator is actually indicating. As a result, he has asked me to create numerous versions of the document set that have various conditions turned on, but only one of the indicators being visible.

That is to say, if the document has conditions A, B, C, D, E, F, G, and H, he wants to see the information tagged A, D, F, and G, but he only wants the INDICATOR for F to be visible.

Right now I'm using MIF snippets to reset the colors for A, D, and G to black on white (having discovered that As-Is just doesn't cut it), and another MIF snippet to reset them to their normal colors, but it sure would be nice if I could toggle the indicators for individual conditions. The way I'm doing it is a bit error prone, and it is also very tedious.

Is this something that could be done with an ExpressScript or MIF editing?
Is it worth putting individually toggleable condition indicators in as a feature request with Adobe? Am I the only person with an issue like this?
