In my case, menus are very dynamic, depend on many factors and can change several times during the day. Consider managing a schedule for few people for few shifts (24x7 network operations center). Checking who is allowed to do what, has been already done. It is one level above this code. ;)

    Ok. So, have the menu item know what factors affect its ability to display itself. *shrugs* Just because you've handled the problem I describe solving doesn't mean the algorithm wouldn't be helpful in solving what you're looking to do.
