Sandro Martini commented on PIVOT-758:
--------------------------------------

Extract from discussion in Mailing List:

> This would only work if all form fields were guaranteed to be TextInputs, 
> which they are not.
> There is no way to generically ensure that a "required" field has a value, 
> because there is no API in Component such as "hasValue():boolean" (nor do I 
> think there should be).
All the Form "required" stuff should be removed in 2.0.1 final, so for for the 
2.1: 
if (opt., only when desired) use validators in all input elements (text, date, 
etc), verify if it makes sense to implement a way to let application developers 
to use a Form method to call all validators of its elements and collect all 
results.

And probably even this issue could be renamed ...

> Improve the implementation of "required" inside Form, so is will be possible 
> to make some simple validation (for example at form submit, like in HTML 
> forms), like verify that all required fields have a value inside.
