Yes, that should work… just be sure to get the evaluator bean id correct…

tomcat/webapps/share/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/share-documentlibrary-config.xml :

         <action id="warp" type="javascript" label="actions.document.warp">
            <param name="function">onActionWarp</param>
            <evaluator negate="true">evaluator.doclib.action.warpable</evaluator>
         </action>‍‍‍‍

Thanks,
Mike

Thank you Mike for your warping-fast answer!
I just realized I must also remove the negate="true" part, so that becomes:

         <action id="warp" type="javascript" label="actions.document.warp">
            <param name="function">onActionWarp</param>
            <evaluator>evaluator.doclib.action.warpable</evaluator>
         </action>‍‍‍‍
