Symptom
User has created a custom MDF object and a UI. This UI has several different sections inside of it, and user has configured some field level overrides permissions for some users.
Before the release, if the user didn't have access to any of the fields inside of the section, the section didn't appear.
After the release, if the user doesn't have access to any of the fields inside of the section, the section appears but blank (without any fields inside of it).
Fig1:Fig1 displays the related symptom. The section titles
still appear when there is no fields in the sections.
