      Custom Profile Fields that are marked Required on the email-based self-registration form,
      are NOT required when the user has Guest status.

      This is important, as with a Distance Learning Site setup (we're using the PayPal gateway for course purchase), a new user (lacking a site account) looking at a course description, and clicking the link at the bottom of this to log in, is granted Guest status from that link; then on attempting to create an account on the site, the Required Custom fields are NOT required, and we end up with users necessary contact information in their profiles.
