Emptiness check in field_group_remove_empty_form_groups() does not account for empty containers

I have a node display that has a field group (with label) wrapped around an EVA (a view meant to show up as a field on node display form). When the view returns no results i am left with:

<div class="section">
    <h2>Order Information</h2>
    <div class="views-element-container"></div>
</div>

Neither patch here or one from #3098550: Nested groups render on other entity forms (or when fields are inaccessible) when they shouldn't → solves the issue. I guess simply a striptags before determining emptiness is too simple?
