Could you do what you need by having an .fm file that has a table with a row for each condition indicator, one column for the indicator name, a second with conditional text saying "currently visible," and a third describing its purpose? You could include that file as the first page after the front matter when generating PDFs (?) for your boss, and drop it from customer versions.
