Triggering workflows on field changes to a field a user does not have access to

[Guido1982]

Yes I am sure, I spent almost an hour trying various combinations and checking my configuration. In the end, starting the workflow chain would not place an entry for the task ID in the workflow task queue table when profile P did not have access to check A, and as soon as I gave profile P access to check A, the task ID appeared in the table and the e-mail was sent. Also, performing the same operation as an admin also triggered the e-mail.
