      Users (other than admin) no longer seem able to add blocks to their profile page. I have tried on the latest 2.4.1 and 2.5 dev. They see the message "there are no blocks you can add to this page" I have tried on 2.2 and 2.3 and they are able to do this. Wondering if it is related to MDL-34270?
