Comment (by r-a-y):

 > Ray's patch amends the line to each field type's edit_field_html() which
 is the right place, but adding anything here will also appear in the user
 profile/edit and the wp-admin profile/edit templates.

 The admin dashboard user profile uses a different method -
 `admin_field_html()` - to output the xprofile field HTML.  So this patch
 only affects the frontend.

 > If we're worried about the inconsistency, and want a more conservative
 fix for 2.0.1, we could only fire the action if ( bp_is_register_page() )

 Right, perhaps the registration page check and go directly in the
 `bp_get_the_profile_field_errors_action()` function?
