Paul Field commented on HIVEMIND-178:
-------------------------------------

We're developing web applications so setting system properties is not a 
particularly nice thing to do when you may be co-existing with other web 
applications (and it may be forbidden by the security manager).

However, the feature is a "nice to have" and we can live without it if it's a 
big change to HiveMind. Does it make sense to lower the priority and leave it 
open in case anyone wants to vote for it?

> Conditional Contributions are really handy during testing and I now have a 
> number of features that I can turn on or off during development/testing. 
> However, now there are several options, it's not particularly convenient to 
> configure them through system properties; it would be nicer to have a single 
> file containing all the flags.
> I can create this single file and expose it as a SymbolSource, but 
> conditional contributions cannot use the value of a symbol from a 
> SymbolSource.
> Please could you enhance the conditional contribution expressions to allow me 
> to specify the name of a symbol from a SymbolSource.
