> As discussed in http://markmail.org/message/d2tpovewhtotukwa the "not empty" 
> field types  ("id-ne", "id-long-ne" and  "id-vlong-ne") were initially added 
> to implement validations on data. But, because the validations where only 
> implemented in some place like webtools, it contradicts the distinction to be 
> upheld on various layers. So it is better to remove these field types. So we 
> will remove all those field types and will create sub tickets to replace them 
> in entity definitions by corresponding "id" types.
> When replacing the "not empty" field types in entity definitions by 
> corresponding "id" types we will add a *not-null="true"* attribute to "makes 
> the field NOT NULL on the database (like primary key fields)" as explained in 
> "not-null" documentation in fieldtypemodel.xsd.  We will finally clean the 
> documentation of the "not-null" in fieldtypemodel.xsd.
