Custom Fields Permission Quick Edit - freeze top/left headers for Role and Status; add in field Caption
When we need to update the custom field permissions, the Permission Quick Edit is often unusable. Once you scroll down a small amount, you lose the header row and can't tell what role or status you're changing. Same for when you scroll to the right, you lose the Custom Field column on the far left and have no idea what field you're editing.
We also usually don't really know the field's name as well as we know the Caption. It would be so helpful to include both the name and caption for reference so you know you're really updating the intended field(s).
See screenshot of a grid of checkboxes that I can't tell what they are for.
We sometimes are adding or updating a role and want to compare with another existing role. It would be great if we could drag or reorder the roles to put the ones we want to use next to each other. Or toggle on/off or allow us to "hide" some columns for roles so we only display the role(s) we're interested in seeing at the moment. Similar functionality for Status would also be helpful.

Also would be really helpful to have the option in the Security Matrix to toggle all the checkboxes on or off *across* for a particular field, not just *down* for a Role or Status like we can do with the 3 dots in the header row to "Copy Row Settings". For example, I have a similar update I'd like to make to a large number of new fields to remove all the current permissions and replace with updated permissions and need to go through each field manually to do this.
