My issue is this: I created a new custom field with the Multi-Line Text type. This field is labeled "Report Values/Columns" and is set to use a wiki renderer, which I've set to a default 4 column with headers, 3 row empty table. My intent with this was to provide a template for users to begin from when entering their report requirements. Also, the field is set to required; however, on the create/edit screens this field doesn't require entry BECAUSE of that default table. It considers the field already filled by default, which means users can still create the ticket without modifying the field.
Is there a way to make this field continue to be required, even when the default table is there?
