That was an interesting discovery when we went to ARS7.5 / RUT 7.1 with ITSM
6 (the 7.1 RUT packages was very delayed in being deployed so we stayed with
it rather then a new build around the time of the server upgrade).
Apparently these were unchecked all along OOTB but when we went to ARS 7.5
and RUT 7.1 the setting was finally enforced in RUT.  Our users could see
they had saved searched but they were grayed out.

We felt kind of stupid when we put in a ticket to BMC and they said yeah,
just uncheck the box for each view.  Who knew it was unchecked all along?
