Description
In some use cases, a new element, which makes a check box of a component "visible" and "checked in default" but "not-toggleable", is needed.
For example, in case where the software vendor wants to force users always install/update a specific component.
The existing elements are not fitting to this requirement, for example :
- Setting "<Essential> true </Essential>" can force users to update a component when they use MaintenanceTool, but it does not work in Installer.
- Setting "<Checkable> false </Checkable>" simply hides the checkbox. It conflicts the setting of "<default> true </default>".
