Datatype "required" problems

I have a couple of problems with enforcing some datatypes.

In my user class I want to "Require" certain datatypes among the ones I made required are Text Line, User Account, Enhanced Selection, Country, Selection and Checkbox. Of these only the Text Line and and User Account are actually enforcing data input. I have altered the multiple selection template of Enhanced Selection to present tick boxes and not the standard but this doesn't appear to alter anything.

Does anyone else experience this, and can anyone give suggestions as to what might cause this.

Thanks!

We are always interested in hearing from experienced eZ PHP programmers and eZ template designers interested in contract work.

Country and Enhanced selection are contributions so you should contact the contributor if there are bugs with them.
There is an issue with checkbox, this is already reported and will be fixed. Selection shows a combobox if I'm not mistaken and it should not be possible _not_ to select anything in it by design.

I'm the main programmer of the Enhanced selection datatype. We use it on all of our portals (both internal and external ones) and we have yet to find an issue with the required option.

If you believe there is an issue, you're welcome to email me the full details at hmelis [at] sckcen [dot] be (preferrably steps how to reproduce the problem).
