Hidden Rules

I was wondering if it was possible to create hidden rules. I came across this old issue: #156 . That doesn't seem to be very helpful though. Can you give me an example of modifying the rules after using setRulesFromSQL ? Here's my use case:

The app I am creating is a custom reporting app. We will be able to connect to any database and query and columns from any table or view. It's taken a lot of work, but it's mostly working very well so far. Now the thing is we want to let our clients see the reports as well... We want to setup the default filters beforehand and then they can modify them when running the report. So we can edit, but they cant.. and what we want is to be able to set some filter like:

WHERE ClientId = 123

And we don't want this to show up for clients when they are running it.. for obvious security reasons. Therefore, it is important to be able to have hidden filters. Please tell me how I can do this.

Thanks in advance.

Start by reviewing the existing setRulesFromSQL flow and the earlier issue #156. Determine how a filter can remain enforced while hidden from client editing, then document an example that modifies rules after setRulesFromSQL and confirms the hidden condition is still applied.
