Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

So I am creating a custom component with different sections (views) like dashboard, users (with sync to the com_users), categories (with sync to com_articles), media (will contain audio and video), etc. You got the idea. It is not a standard joomla core component.

And I am working on Permissions which is using the rules field type. Looking at config.xml and access.xml, at first glance, cool! I can tell config.xml to pull from access.xml all the actions for each of my custom components sections so I can have different permissions per views or sections.

Well, I am wrong! Seems like the rules field type will only work properly if there only one instance of the field in a page. The permissions slider or tabs (I don't know what it's called) for each group does not sync with the section.

If what I am doing putting all the permission settings in one place is a bad idea, then please suggest an idea.

Thanks!

Describe the solution you'd like

Allow rules field type to be rendered multiple times in a single page or tab pane.
