</div>

As shown in the image below, the Company field is set as required. In the user's preferences, if the field is left empty and the user clicks Save, a popup appears with the message "Error: You have not filled in all required user fields." At this point, the user has no way of knowing which specific field is required. 1. Required fields are not marked with an asterisk (\*). 2. The error message does not specify which field needs to be filled in. This is especially problematic when I have multiple custom fields set as required. An administrator might know which fields are required, but regular users will be confused. I would like to see an asterisk (\*) added to required fields, and for the popup message to explicitly state which field is missing. It would be even better if the system could automatically focus on the required input field...
