System Information
Operating system: Ubuntu 18.10

Blender Version
Broken: 558017d6a6

Short description of error
Switching to a Camera which is hidden, does not evaluate the animation data.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

Open attached blend file
in the scene tab, change the camera to cam-main
scrub in the timeline
notice how the camera doesnt move
enable viewport visibility on collection 5
notice how it now moves

I reported a similar case a while back, not sure if the depsgraph has significantly changed since #51907

Not a bug. You have disabled evaluation of the objects in that collection. So this is the correct behavior.

Sorry for reopening however I would like this to be reconsidered. The active camera 'should' have special privileges which evaluate it regardless of whether it is visible or not, as it causes much artist confusion to when the camera 'should' be animated but is not.

I would also like you to look at #51907 and realise that this is exactly the same bug. Previously, when the active camera was on a hidden layer, it was not evaluated. This is the same as when a layer is disabled.
