New description:

 Required fields should include a visual indicator, plus a legend when
 using a star or similar character for multiple fields.

 Having a set of return and echo functions to create strings for both the
 indicator and a default explanation could help in some

 fields core implementations], as well as with plugins and themes ''(if
 their minimum WordPress version includes these functions)''.
