Objects with file fields, edited inline, throws validation errors on edit

Description

This is similar to #26.

I have an object with multiple related file attachments, each represented by a related object that i'm editing inline (tabular).

When I edit the parent object, it displays the current value of the file field as a link above the file input.
If I save the parent object, the empty file fields (labeled Change:) throw "This field is required" errors, even though the field has a current value.

It seems that validation on file fields should check both for input (and replace if it exists) and for an existing value.

This is something that is broken in newforms-admin and doesn't match current trunk's admin behavior. I will have a patch for this soon.

#6241 really supersedes this ticket since the attached patch there fixes this problem. Won't close this ticket quite yet.
