[LC] 6.1.3 The required Property

http://www.w3.org/TR/xforms11/#model-prop-required

"An XForms Processor may provide an indication that a form control is  
required, and may provide immediate feedback, including limiting  
navigation."

While the readonly property says:
"Form controls bound to instance data with the readonly model item  
property should indicate that entering or changing the value is not  
allowed."

Relevant says:
"In general, when true, associated form controls should be made visible.  
When false, associated form controls (and any children) and group and  
switch elements (including content) must be made unavailable, removed from  
the navigation order, and not allowed focus."

The type and constraint MIPs say nothing about display (though there is  
probably something somewhere).

1. I think that the processor SHOULD provide information that a value is  
required in bound controls, in the same way as readonly says.

2. I think we should say something in the type and constraint MIPs, even  
if it's only a cross-reference.
