    Description

      Forgetting to enter any (valid) content into a required form input element, and clicking the submit ("Save and return") button at the bottom of the form, does not jump the the relevant missing input field (or the "You must supply a value here" message)

      Experienced while trying to add a new Forum without giving it a name.

      Seems like an accessibility and a usability issue.
