Enable/Disable swipe in one direction depending on position

This is a feature request; To allow swipe in only one direction for Rows (or both depending on the requirements). This would mean replacing hasActions with two methods: swipesLeft and swipesRight:

// Example Implementation

@Override
public boolean swipesLeft(int position) {
    // Swipe Left for only Odd Rows
    return position % 2 == 1;
}

@Override    
public boolean swipesRight(int position) {
    // Swipe Right for only Even Rows
    return position % 2 == 0;
}

I don't think it is possible to do this properly using hasActions.
hasActions is called when you touch a row, before you are actually swiping. I only know the direction when the swipe starts. If I'd want to implement something like this that leaves me two options:

1. Visualize the swipe and stop it if hasActions returns false on the current direction, which would give this weird bumping effect
2. Wait until after hasActions comes back before visualizing the swipe, but that might feel laggy (this is conjecture though, I haven't tried it)

I'm also not convinced that this leads to a good user experience. I've personally always hated apps that allow me to swipe on a list row in one direction but not another.
