I created a very similar control. For a company that did multiple events and needed registration forms that varied from event to event. I actually added a field in my table "isRequired" and then I handled it with a Case statement based on the type of control (e.g. textbox, dropdown, etc... ) and if the field was isRequred=true then I would add a validator when I created the table and controls.
