You make a good point. The requires for email is set if define_tables.
You can override that. The validators only apply when registering a
new user.
The login function overrides the validators because you do not want to
give an attacker unnecessary information about why he cannot login. In
praticular
auth.settings.table_user.email.requires = [IS_NOT_EMPTY(error_message
= T("Enter value")), IS_EMAIL(error_message=T("Enter Email")),
IS_NOT_IN_DB(db,
auth.settings.table_user.email, error_message=T("value already in
database"))]
would be right for registration but not for login. IS_NOT_IN_DB should
be IS_IN_DB and IS_NOT_EMPTY is redundant given IS_EMAIL.
You are right there is a problem. Since login overrides the validation
you cannot markup its error message with T. This is a bug and I will
fix it tomorrow.
