Mhh, I think that form fields should support this. Let me look at the code
briefly.
So yes, you need to change it on the widget level; here is what you have to do
in your form:
class MyForm(Form):
def updateWidgets(self):
super(MyForm, self).updateWidgets()
self.widgets['prefix.myfield'].required = False
Is that too difficult still?
