Hi,
A bit of summarizing on what we've got so far:

Pretty much everyone agreed on left-aligned title.

Proposal H got the most vote. I agree with Caty on the fact that make it
colored would pop out more. As long as it's a dark enough color I think it
won't hinder accessibility.

Thus I'm suggesting we use H but with "required" printed in the orange color
used in proposal G.

WDYT?

B got 3 votes, A one, C one. B & C are quite similar (text above or below
the error). Having text at the top is better in the tree configuration and
it doesn't make that much of a difference for regular fields.

Thus I suggest we go for B.

We're short on time here, please cast your -1 quickly if you disagree with
this.

Thanks,

Guillaume
