Within unlinked components we can set conditional visibility based on whether a specific CMS field "is set." With components we only have conditional visibility based on "toggle" fields. I'd like to set an icon button to appear only if a specific link "is set" and hide if not set.
I'm fairly amazed this hasn't shipped– it seems like it would be low effort and high return. With a site that has a lot of CMS content and uses collection lists with a large amount of conditional visibilities to display it, not having this is really curtailing the actual power of using components.
An easy example is with product tiles. I can't use components if I want to have something like a 'new' tag for recent products published in the last 14 days. There's a lot more use cases, but something as simple as that is preventing me from using components in a meaningful way and I still have to update every instance of product tiles.
