Describe the bug
A clear and concise description of what the bug is.

We are now encouraging people to use verbatim agents in attributes instead of agents when they are low-quality, but the data entry form still requires an agent to be entered as collector or preparator etc in order to save.

I recently made a new record this way and in order to save it I had to enter 'unknown' for agent and chose 'preparator' to get around this problem.

Priority
Please assign a priority-label. Unprioritized issues get sent into a black hole of despair.

I am setting this as next task, because I don't see any reason we shouldn't do it, especially now that we cannot create an agent without some additional information.

Yes and also everything else that isn't required for reals.

AWG says go, and get other "required" that's not core required while in there.

#4184

Wishlist for collection-specific "required" is #4384

Is there a time frame for removing this requirement?
