 * Ticking the “Required” box when adding a field to a form generates the red asterisk,
   but if the field is not filled up the entry is accepted and processed anyway.
   Shouldn’t the form submission fail in these cases?

 * That is not how its supposed to work. Most of the time this happens because a
   custom theme does not include wp_footer().
