Description

Currently we have following three feature flags for the web UI and REST API:

1) web.submit.enabled

2) web.cancel.enabled

3) web.rescale.enabled

 

2) and 3) only hide the web UI elements, while 1) also removes the REST API endpoint; We should introduce equivalent options for the REST API (rest.xxx.enabled), which would give the user flexibility to choose whether both REST API and WEB UI should be disabled for a given feature.
