You _did_ enter some data, namely a string which just happens to be
the empty string (which in turn is different from "no data", i.e. NULL).
How should MySQL know that you don't want empty strings?
I think the user expects:
INSERT INTO table (bar) VALUES ("text");
to behave the same as:
INSERT INTO table (foo, bar) VALUES (NULL, "text");
which would throw an error (correctly).
No comment ;-)
