XF 1.1 Permissions for custom user fields?

[seriosbrad]

I would like for only a few of my groups to be able to configure a custom user field, is there any way I can do this?

 

[Jake Bunce]

There is no such option. Custom fields don't support permissions.

Can a plugin be built for this?

I'm sure one could be, yes.
