Description:
------------
This example was taken from page 37 of the rapid prototyping-kr.pdf presentation on DB_DataObject. It should show how the minlength condition can be used with addRule method of HTML_Quickform on DB_Formbuilder Generated forms to force the user to enter a review of at least 10 characters . It works if you enter 1-9 characters, but will allow an empty review (0 characters?).

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
/**
* Table Definition for review
*/
require_once 'DB/DataObject.php';

class dataobjects_Review extends DB_DataObject
{
###START_AUTOCODE
/* the code below is auto generated do not remove the above tag */

var $__table = 'review'; // table name
var $review_id; // int(8) not_null primary_key
var $book_id; // int(8) not_null
var $customer_id; // int(8) not_null
var $title; // string(64)
var $review; // string(20)

/* ZE2 compatibility trick*/
function __clone() { return $this;}

/* Static get */
function staticGet($k,$v=NULL) { return DB_DataObject::staticGet('dataobjects_Review',$k,$v); }

/* the code above is auto generated do not remove the tag below */
###END_AUTOCODE
var $fb_fieldLabels = array(
'customer_id' => 'Customer',
'book_id' => 'Book');
//var $fb_textFields = array('review');
var $fb_linkNewValue = true;
/*
function preGenerateForm(&$fb) {
$el = HTML_QuickForm::createElement('hidden','customer_id');
$this->fb_preDefElements['customer_id'] = $el;
} */
function postGenerateForm(&$form) {
$form->addRule('title', 'Please enter a title','required');
$form->addRule('review', 'Please at least try...','minlength', 10);
$form->applyFilter('__ALL__', 'trim');
}

}

Expected result:
----------------
When the form is generated from the above source, it should force the user to enter a title, and 10 or more characters in the review field. .

Actual result:
--------------
The user however can enter nothing in the review and submit the form
