Wanted to know if anyone has solved this. I make a field required in a form; then as a user i get in the form and want to get out without doing anything so i hit Cancel. The form will not close as it needs the required field to be filled in. Given this issue i cannot leverage the function of making some fields required and some not. It is an either all required or none required option. Anyone find a work around or how to solve this problem?...

I also suggest using post-form validation, which loops back to the same form seamlessly if validation fails (and you can check for specific button-clicks pretty easily). Create a section at the top with a header of "error on form" or similar, which only shows up if validation failed, then individual read-only text fields in that section which only show up if their particular validation was caught.
