Body: <p>This seems like it should be possible but I may be missing a trick.</p>
  
  <p>Is it possible to use a single field multiple times in a section? So, for example, if you have a simple 'text' field and you want to include that twice in one section. The field layout designer only allows you to drag it once and then just move it to different tabs but not create another <em>instance</em> of it.</p>
