Jadclipse is your friend (^_^)

That isn't rule based. It is simply a boolean returning internal page state.

I'm not sure I follow you exactly, but it sounds like you may want to look into 
subclassing a master-detail type of page.  It looks a bit like an edit 
relationship page with no query.

Or perhaps a edit list page from Wonder.

If you ever want to see *all* the rules (And you're using Wonder), just paste

log4j.logger.er.directtoweb.rules=DEBUG

into your properties file.
