           Summary: Setting MARC 005 as not required causes save error in
                    Advanced Editor and not Basic Editor

This requires having some bib records where the 005 is blank or missing.

To recreate:
1. Edit the default framework and uncheck the mandatory box for the 005 and
save.
2. Find a bib record with a missing/blank 005 and edit the record in the basic
editor.
3. See that the 005 is blank and is not required. Save

The record saves as it should.

4. Now edit the record again and switch to the Advanced Editor.
5. See that the 005 is missing.
6. Save.

Save fails and gives an error statement "Record structure invalid, cannot
save."

Ideally records should have a 005. If this is a truly required field for Koha
to function, then the ability to mark the field not mandatory should be
disabled. Along with this, the ability to delete the field should be prevented
(see bug 35135). Regardless, this is inconsistent behavior where it works in
one place and not another.
