Batch modify form can be submitted without making any changes

[desrosj]

It looks like the batch modify form can be submitted even if nothing in the form is filled out/selected.

• Open a Trac report
• Check a few tickets
• Open Batch Modify at the bottom
• Click "Change Tickets"

The result is a Batch Modify email gets sent out, but no changes are made or comment added tot he tickets.

The Batch Modify functionality is provided ​by Trac.

Although we could probably prevent this by adding Javascript, I'm inclined to not do that, due to the ongoing maintenance burden of doing so.

This might also be fixed in a later version of Trac.

I suggest this is closed as wontfix.

In 14505:

Trac: Mark the Batch Modification comment field as required.

Props desrosj, dd32.
See #8044.
Fixes #8045.

With the above change via #8045 the comment field is required, as such, all batch modifications should require at least a comment to be added (ie. Batch commenting).

That removes the need for any changes specific to this request.
