I'm having problems with some automatic validators being set on my tables. 
 I have fields which are optional, they are NOT set as "notnull=True" and I 
did not provide anyvalidator -- but I DID set a length for the field, as is 
good practice for most databases.

It appears those fields are being set with an automatic validator for field 
length, and as a consequence they are behaving as though they are 
"required" fields.  I get an error if the field is left empty during the 
validation phase of my form.  I can null out this automatic validation by 
setting requires=[] on each field, but I have something like 50 fields in 
this table.  They are not all string fields, either, so a blanket 
requires=[] would probably screw up some of the fields.

Is there a way to make the automatic validators for length handle 
IS_EMPTY_OR correctly for fields that may be empty?
