AEM 5.6.1 Hide workflow's step back

[Former Community Member]

Is there any way to hide workflow's step back from users (participants) ?

Sometimes participants must not see "system steps" like "lock page", "activate page", "go to", etc. 

I found we can overwrite standard backroutes.json.jsp with additional "check permissions" logic.
But, I think that it is not a good way. Because this behaviour can be changed in any future update or another bundle will try to do the same "upgrade".
