Conflict with Ticket Validator Plugin

[sdw_1979@…]

Hi, i've a TRAC 0.12 and i've installed your (great) plugin, it's ok and awesome but i've a problem with the option date_empty = true.

I've configured two date fields, due_assign and due_close, to identify the start and the finish of a ticket life, the due_close is made required by the TicketValidatorPlugin. When a ticket state become Closed , the due_close field becomes required.

The problem is that if i choose to use the option date_empty = true, i can leave an empty date even if the TicketValidatorPlugin is working and if i don't use the date_empty, the field is ALWAYS required and i don't want to insert an open date (31/12/9999) to force the validation, i want the user to insert a true date only AFTER the closing of the ticket.

I hope you understand my explaination, sorry for my english.
