196	Feature request: Rule ConditionalNotRequired	bjoernkraus@…	schst	"In some cases you'll need a form flag which, if it's set, remarks other form elements as NOT required. The following file is a very small modification if the original ConditionalRequired rule:
{{{
<?php
/**

/**
 * patForms Rule ConditionalNotRequired
 *
 * This rule can be used to set the status of
 * some elements to NOT required depending on the value
 * of another element.
 *
 * It has to be applied prior to validating the form.
