Proposed functionality
Although individual custom field visibility can be controlled based on whether data is present, when lots of custom fields are present the user must establish which are required themselves.
The proposal is to control visibility of a custom field group, probably in a similar structure to custom validators.
Visibility of the group would be set based on the value of another field within that object. For example a custom field group called "Mast Site Information" could be set to visible or not based on a custom field Boolean value. The same could be extended to any field for example a particular tag being present.
This would add most value at a site and device level, but in theory could be extended to any object.
Use case
Filtering visibility of custom field groups to present data only relevant to the context of the object
