I'm not sure exactly what you mean by "imposed page", but it sounds as though you mean "any page where the markup is coming from somewhere other than the current one." If that's correct, then essentially you're saying that recipes should be able to disable certain markups if they're coming from an included page or section, a pagelist template, GroupHeader, GroupFooter, page text variable, SideBar, or any other feature where we're doing any sort of "templating". I think that many admins and authors would find such limitations to also be confusing and overly constraining -- i.e., I can't generate a page containing a ZAP form and then just (:include:) it on multiple other pages? Or certain directives aren't allowed to be used in pagelist templates? Or I can't use form processing directives in a SideBar? So, while this might be a fix, I think it comes with its own set of negative issues and confusion for authors/admins that are probably best avoided. All of this is just a way of saying that I think we need a different overall solution to the problem here -- i.e., being able to bypass edit to write to *any* page is too blunt an instrument for what we're trying to achieve.
