Comment (by hnla):

 That would empty the value I guess but have we run that after or before
 validation of any description, obviously html 'required' see it as having
 a value so passes.

 Why do we require this, I remember a lot of time spent on usernames but
 that was at least four years back so fuzzy memory.

 BTW this is one of the fields that prompted my concern over lack of
 'required' attr on xprofile required fields.
