In previous versions it was possible for non-admin users that are allowed to configure hosts in WATO to also manage custom host attributes.

This has been changed by introducing a new permission "Manage custom attributes" that is needed in addition to the host / user managing permission. By default this permission is only given to the "admin" role.
