Not letting one group of users see a set of CFs is possible with RT's

I think that might've been the key. I removed some more wide spread
permissions on one of my mandatory fields & the error is gone. Let me
play around with the others & I'll get back to you.
Which error is gone?
When trying to submit a ticket as a user that had SeeCustomField, but
not MidifyCustomField, It would give me the error that the CF "Input
must match [Mandatory]", even though I couldn't see the field to set it
& I don't have permissions to set it anyway. Removing SeeCustomField
from Everyone on the CF allowed me to create a ticket without error.
How are you making the CFs mandatory, btw? If it's an extension, that
may affect whether or not it's caring to check rights before verifying
mandatory-ness.
I'm setting the validation field in the Basic CF config to "(?#Mandatory)."
The blanket permission was SeeCustomField granted to everyone on the CF
level. I'm guessing that there's no good way to allow a user to see the
field, but not modify it? Am I misunderstanding what SeeCustomField
allows?
It's possible, I was mistaken on SeeQueue a while back.
The See* rights are just visibility, not modification.
ModifyCustomField controls adding/removing values from CFs on tickets, etc.
After testing different scenarios, it looks like
SeeCustomField/ModifyCustomField works as I would expect in every
instance except for ticket creation. I may have stumbled across a bug.
* As expected, a user having neither SeeCustomField nor
ModifyCustomField will not see the custom field when the ticket is
displayed or when they modify ticket basics.
* As expected, a user with SeeCustomField, but not ModifyCustomField
will see the CF & it's value when the ticket is displayed, but will not
see the form element to set it when editing ticket basics.
* As expected, a user with SeeCustomField, but not ModifyCustomField
will not see the input form element for a field on the ticket creation
input page.
* What's unexpected is if a user has SeeCustomField, but not
ModifyCustomField on a mandatory CF, at ticket creation they get the
error "MyCustomField: Input must match [Mandatory]" even though it's not
displayed & they don't have modify rights on it. Shouldn't RT create
the ticket just as it does for a user without SeeCustomField, leaving
the mandatory CF unset?
BTW, I never said, but this is all rt-4.0.13, although it hasn't worked
the way I'd expect on any version I've used (rt-3.6.3,
rt-4.0.{8,9,10,11,12,13})
