    I'm in the admin back end and editing a user. Some of the fields are required but the problem is that I need to enter them all to save one part of a user's record. That shouldn't be required if I'm an admin. Even if all fields are required, I'm the admin/editor. I should be able to change one field and ignore the other required fields. Is there any way we can remove the validation from the back end when editing users?

    @slinky: Which field(s) are you referring to? I believe that, by default, only username and password are "required" fiends for new user records for admins.
