[Evergreen-general] "Default phone" required field in the patron edit screen

[Jane Sandberg]

Hi Evergreeners,

We just upgraded from 3.4 to 3.7, and are running into bug 1901726
<https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/1901726>.  Basically, when we go
to edit any of our patrons, there is a field called "Default phone number",
which is now required.  It's almost always empty, meaning we can't save the
form until we fiddle with it.

It's frustrating that we have to fiddle with this field before making any
changes to patron records.  Are there any workarounds that your libraries
are using to reduce this frustration?

  -Jane
