My understanding of Dev is if it has to do with changing the design of ofbiz I may be wrong but this sounds more like a bug. that could be dev but I see as user I am open to a clarification. :D my permission is MYPAGE_EMPLOYEE only. So only mypage and projects show when the user logs in. I am taken to the My page. I click on profile then edit userlogin when I click on save i get no error messages.
