Hi @ian6 ,
No worries - I understand where you're coming from. For what it's worth we currently have a feature that explores a pattern around field validation, in the context of SEO metadata. Essentially if the field is empty we show a modal where we have generated copy of for the field and the user can approve and publish or update the field within the modal. There is also some light validation for the field i.e. it shows the recommended number of characters for an SEO metatitle or metadescription. You can read more about the feature here and I'll update this thread in the future if I have more updates on this topic.
Best,
Guy
