System Information
Operating system: Linux-4.19.24-1-MANJARO-x86_64-with-arch-Manjaro-Linux 64 Bits
Graphics card: AMD TURKS (DRM 2.50.0 / 4.19.24-1-MANJARO, LLVM 7.0.1) X.Org 3.3 (Core Profile) Mesa 18.3.3

Blender Version
Broken: version: 2.80 (sub 74), branch: master, commit date: 2019-06-30 19:51, hash: bbb3500c97
Worked: (optional)

Short description of error
Dupli Visibility inside collections menu used to make visible necessary layers is gone. Unable to achieve same effect using Outliner. Collections grouped (ctrl + g) do not show up in Outliner.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Group all objects relating to a rig together (widgets, mesh & armature)
If grouped old fashioned way it won't show up in Outliner & Dupli visibility panel is not accessible.

If all objects are added to a new collection and only mesh is left visible,
Save and attempt link in a new file. All objects would still be showing up.

Reference on how to proxy an object in case that's needed

Sorry if I'm wasting your time.

The workflow is different in 2.8, but the same results are possible. See for example "Character Linking" in this post to see how you can get similar behavior.
