Datasource ability to pause change handler when about to make lots of changes
The datasource change handler gets fired very proactively. Sometimes you have to subscribe to this to kick off other item.set(...) calls or to even update DOM UI or widgets.

When you are about to update a lot of objects in a datasource it would be good to be able to pause the change handler, then unpause it. When un-paused can the backlog of events fire as one event?

I don't want to un-subscribe from the change handler as I don't want to miss some of the events whilst I am updating items in the datasource.

Thank you for the proposal.

I discussed it with our developers. They advised that rather providing such an option (which would be quite cumbersome for various scenarios), you may wrap your logic inside the handler in conditional checks and execute it only when they are evaluated.

I hope this is applicable for you, hence closing this request,
