Why can't I use this expression in a GO?

I have an expression resulting in a string value valid or non_valid. I can't use it in my GO though. I can't even see it when adding properties to the GO rule. Why so?

Some parameters (and expression-based Properties using them) are not available as Graphic Override criteria:

It seems only Expressions that only use the "general parameters" can be evaluated in a GO.

Smells like a bug (by design) to me. At least it should be available when we set the "element type" in the GO to the right type...

Thanks Lazlo!

I'd like to ask GS if it is my job to accidentally find these "not available" properties/parameters?

Probably not, but if you do, it is appreciated.
