Problem with Mode of assigning categories
In Admin setup > Forums > Categories > Mode of assigning categories
I encounter a behaviour not exactly as documented.
There is 3 possibilities:
1. Deny the users to assign categories themselves
2. Allow selection of categories. Current selected by default.
3. Forced to select a category. No default category.
1 is working perfectly: when a user enter a new topic, the category list is not displayed at all: he can't select a category, that's OK.
2 seems to be partially working. When creating a new topic, the category selector is displayed and allow to select a category.
But, even when you create a new topic after entering a particular catagory of forum, the current category is not selected by default: I always get "Uncategorized" selected by default.
3 seems not to work at all. The category selector now displays "Please select category", but you are not forced to select a category and you can leave this selector without any action.
I guess in "Forced" mode, a warning (or a greyed "Post" button) would prevent from posting a topic without selecting a category?
Please, could cases 2 and 3 work as documented in the admin setup?

1. OK
2. FIXED
3. Works fine. Show text "Please select category". If you will not select category it will be shown like error and marked red.
