I am sorry if this has been covered before. Are there any plans to have user access limited to certain tabs within a document type? I know you can limit what content pages are viewable but this would also be a nice feature. Certain user types don't need to view / or have access to meta tags for example when editing content. I had a request today regarding this, but other then modifying the umbraco core, how would you go about it? Is there any existing way of doing it or workaround?
I'm affraid you can't do that. You can use the event system to rollback changes when a user has no access to the properties(not user friendly), or create a custom datatype that is only visble for certain user groups (huge hack) but that's it.

Hi Dennis,
