I changed the subject slightly to clarify to topic. This behavior is not specific to the oxuser__oxstateid field, but applies to any dynamic form field. A dynamic form field is a field which can have different values, depending on the value of another form field.

In this particular case, the values of the oxuser__oxstateid field change depending on the country which was selected (as obviously Germany has other states than the US, for example).

We created a form validation which is as generic as possible, but can be extended for project specific needs. You could write a module which enhances the stock validator by this feature. The place to extend should be this one: http://goo.gl/TbJeAk

From my point of view, this is a feature enhancement: Extend the validator in such a way that it is aware of dynamic fields and validates those fields only if there are any options (=values) to display at all. I will put it on our Product Backlog, and we would be happy to get a contribution for this.

As for now, we should update our documentation and point out that adding a dynamic field to the $aMustFillFields might have side effects, if the dynamic field does not have any values.
