My concern about this is that there is then a user way to always override mandatory (if they know what they are doing) - then can just add this parameter to any form submission. We probably need a way of tightening this, or preferably there would be a way of notifying the user that a saved value is now mandatory?

If I'm honest, I'm having some trouble with this one. I don't quite know whether it would be best to check the fields are mandatory (and blank) in the JS and provide feedback in the auto-recover modal or to have a better check (maybe using the user_key rather than just checking the param is 1) backend to ensure this is only called in the correct circumstances. Suggestions welcomed!!
