As far as I know there is no ootb mechanism to include JS client evaluators on actions.

You should extend Alfresco.DocumentActions. and Alfresco.DocumentListViewRenderer YUI objects in order to apply your own visibility conditions.

For instance, in <CODE>document-action.js</CODE> you can exclude from actions list rendering any action by id in <CODE>onReady</CODE> event:

<javascript>
for (var i = 0, ii = actions.length; i < ii; i++)
{
    // Show action object in log
    console.log(actions);

    // If "any condition" add to rendering list
    if (actions.id != "document-download")
        actionHTML += this.renderAction(actions, record);
}
</javascript>

The exclude method works very well and as expected and described

Thank you
