[TYPO3-core] RFC: Feature Request 5899: Notify user where required elements are nested in IRRE or Tabs

[Oliver Hader]

This is a SVN patch request.

Problem:
TYPO3 offers the possibility to define fields as "required". If done so,
you cannot save a record unless all required fields are filled correctly.
Imagine you're using IRRE with Tabs and create a multilevel scenario
with several required fields. If IRRE levels are collapsed or the tab
with the required field is not visible - you'll spend some time on
searching the field that has to be filled.

Solution:
Store the nesting in Tabs/IRRE of each field using JavaScript. If
required fields are hidden somewhere "deep down" in the structure, the
yellow icons now also appear on the IRRE header and on the Tab and
inform the user where to fix the problem(s).

Comments:
There is a test-extension in the bugtracker which allows to create many
hierarchical nested elements using IRRE and Tabs.
