Sections configuration

Each section could be added or removed via configuration (e.g. 'Sysadmin' or 'Legal' could be part of another validation process).

Remaining task: #2954731: When a section that contains checked items is being removed via configuration, clear the checked items.

Notification

Be notified once a checked item has been invalidated by configuration (e.g. 'Email obfuscation' has been marked has checked but a new email field has been created and has not been protected against email address harvesting).

Feedback

Here is an open issue about feedback and suggestions #2953875: Module feedback & suggestions.
