Description
This is a great module, something that's been long overdue.
One query, how do you delete a flexifield item once it's been crated? I assume by deleting the content? Perhaps a delete item would be useful?
Thanks,
Anthony

I agree - this module is sick. Nice job.
#2
I agree that needing to delete all the content to delete an item is not the best UI, and that a button/checkbox for doing it would be better.
#3
I think is a cck issue http://drupal.org/node/196421 for all multiple value. But perhaps they have a easy way to do this...

If this is a CCk issue, you should considder ignoring empty flexifields containing mandatory fields. This is related to the issue #390480: Sub-fields of flexifield set as required fail validation on node save., but it's not the same:
In the linked issue, the check fails even for fields that are filled with content.
Here, you should avoid the check for an item, in which all fields are empty, as this is the way, items are deleted in CCK at the moment (again, see #196421: Deleting unwanted multiple values / multiple values delta issues for more information)

I would also love to see a "delete" button.
