Referencing #148,... since it was closed yet still seems like something worthwhile looking into.
See the schema below as a use case for a homekit homebridge home automation platform interface to make it easy for people to assign properties for the zones of their house based on the type of zone they are assigning. If you look at zoneActiveAtHome and zoneActiveAtNight, I would like those two items to be hidden if they do not select a specific zoneType. But not only that, I have a few more parameters (about 4 more) that I want to add to that zone that don't need to be visible if they aren't a different specific zoneType.
Because there is an array of panels with a limited number of zones (typically an array of ~6-12 zones per panel), we need to gang-up more panels together in a lot of instances. This being said, this falls in an array within an array scenario and the zones can't have hidden conditional properties within them because of this limitation in the conditionals implementation.
In this day and age, this should be solved, five years later after #148 was inquired about.
