Maybe just disable everything unless the checkbox is enabled.
You should be able to get there by wrapping everything in a web markup
container and enable/disable it using the ajax event form control behavior.

It would make sense, it gets pretty obvious that the configs are there.
At the same time if an admin can only access only a specific workspace
the main links in the sidebar would be pretty confusing, a nicer workflow
for that case would be that the main link would directly bring you to that
service config for that specific workspace
