checkbox + required

I had a required field, a single character which was a manual entry of Y or N. I changed it to an integer checkbox.

Everything generated just fine.

The app loaded fine.

When I went to save the record, with the checkbox checked (the default), everything was fine.

When I then saved with the checkbox unchecked, I was prompted that the checkbox field (not checked) was required.

I think one of two options is appropriate. Either:

1. In the designer, if checkbox is selected it should remove the required attribute.

or:

2. If the required attributed is set for a checkbox field, then it (required) should be ignored in the generated app.
