Checkbox list as User Custom field

[nunoaguiar]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I would like to create a user custom field of type checkbox list

Describe the solution you'd like
I have a headless solution. We're using User Groups (Type = Role), and would want to create a set of checkboxes to trigger "capabilities" (i.e. within a page show/hide the add to cart button)
It would be simpler if I could have 1 field that would have a number of checkboxes associated with it

Describe alternatives you've considered
I will just be using a text field with a comma split values. The problem is that I don't get a full view of all my options, so I need to have a cheatsheet with all of the possible values

Additional context
I want to avoid creating 1 checkbox field for each capability. That would pollute the UI and would make it harder to manage as we'd have to keep sorting the fields.

Thanks,
Nuno Aguiar

I would recommend using e.g. 10 checkbox fields, effectively giving the same result as a checkbox list - instead of a textarea with CSV.

I understand that alternative @nicped thanks

We're still reviewing how many we need, So far seems to be around 25. And I can't seem to configure Group Screens to even put them in a dedicated tab.

It would also be easier in code (headless) to look for 1 single field for all possible options. Using individual checkboxes I need to have a specific naming convention (prefix) to find all of them. Doable, just not as clean.
