Thanks to everyone for your ideas so far. More ideas are welcome, too!

Space is really tight, so I'm not sure we can allot room for a message
(unless the message appears in an overlay)

Olga, when you say inline field validation, do you mean a popup overlay
message right above the field, which would appear as soon as they leave
focus on a field, after leaving it blank?

Thanks
Rachel
