There's definitely a bug with dataControlsVisibility.

dataControlsVisibility="false" doesn't appear to work, even in 3.1.1.

Check out "8.2. Forcing visibility of datamapped views"...
http://www.laszlosystems.com/lps-3.1.1/docs/guide/databinding.html

The example is supposed to demonstrate how it works, however, the green box
isn't displayed, even though it has the attribute set.  This has to be a bug
unless the syntax has changed and the guide hasn't been updated.

Quite possibly. Please file a bug in the bug db

Try setting dataControlsVisibility="false" on the datapath.
See http://www.laszlosystems.com/lps-3.1.1/docs/guide/databinding.html

Hmm. This is a design choice; you could probably write a class based
on edittext that has the behavior you want.
