Display the label of work item attributes (if set) in error messages for Required Attributes For Type and State

When you receive an error message about a required attribute not set, the attribute name is used. This is OK if the name of the attribute and the label of the attribute are the same, but is confusing if the label has been set to something more contextual in the editor presentation. 

Please consider changing the implementation of the error message to take the Label in the Editor Presentation and use it in the message if it is set. Otherwise use the current implementation. That would improve the usability of the Required Attributes For Type and State behaviour.

    EWM RFE review board has evaluated this request. This request, while valid, is unlikely to be addressed in the next 10-12 months due to other higher priority items on the Backlog. Although we are closing this request, it will be kept in IBM's ideas repository and may be reassessed or reopened for additional discussion in the future. We value your feedback and thank you for allowing us to partner with you in developing our products.
