Allow Linking of Conditional Text and Object Layers
Why not allow linking of conditional text conditions to an objects layers or layer comps. This could be done through the object layer options dialog, where you could have the ability to connect existing conditions to an object, by having a tick box to enable the functionality for that specific object. You could then when it is ticked link the conditions to specific object layers or comps in the object layers dialog box.
I appreciate the name conditional text clearly implies it's text, but it would save time in some cases to have image layers hide and show automatically when you hide and show the text conditions, without having to do it manually / separately.
For example a real estate agent with multiple branches may want specific branch office photos / staff photos to automatically show when the condition for that branch is being shown.

This would be a major help. The same for charts (which indesign treats as objects). Just for everyone who's struggling with this. there is a pretty simple workaround to make it an anchored object which indesign treats as text.

In order to extend that: conditional objects, same handling as the conditional text.
