Looks great - thanks for documenting this. Have a few comments, but pre-approving.

| If a policy rule references attribute values you don't hold, those values appear as ``--------`` and the row is read-only. Test and Delete actions are also disabled for those rows. See :ref:`Attribute value masking <administration-guide/manage/admin/abac-system-wide-policies:attribute value masking>` for details. |

This is only for shared_only attributes, right? Should we specify that?

agree, better to clarify this.
| Attribute access modes | ||
| ----------------------- | ||
|
|
||
| Each user attribute has an **access mode** that controls who can see its values when those values appear in access control policies. The access mode is set per attribute and determines whether an admin editing a policy can see the raw attribute values referenced in its rules. |

Should we specify that these access modes are only available for custom plugins to set?

yes, that makes sense. Is hard even for us internally to get how this exactly works. Will add a new section briefly explaining this. I will ask you again for feedback once done @davidkrauser 👍

@davidkrauser one quick look to commit 9f98329 🙏 |
|
@amyblais @marianunez since we are not enabling the FF for this 11.8 release, perhaps we want to hold on this PR so it wont cause confusion on customers. |
@pvev Sounds good, I'll rebase it to master. |
