Authentik 2025.10.3 - Read-only field - Is 'allow blank' really working? #18899
Description
Describe the bug
This morning I have seen the release of Authentik 2025.10.3.
I have seen this line within the changelog:
stages/prompt: set allow_blank for _read_only fields (cherry-pick [#18297](https://github.com/goauthentik/authentik/issues/18297) to version-2025.10) ([#18406](https://github.com/goauthentik/authentik/issues/18406))
That interests me as I need a read-only field which accept blank/empty value: for the moment I have a workaround but I expected to be able to delete it.
I updated from 2025.10.2 to 2025.10.3 but if my read-only field is not filled it does not work.
Maybe I misunderstood the patch but:
- I see no new parameter in the web interface to configure 'allow_blank'
- I see no new parameter in the API to configure 'allow_blank'
- the parameter 'Required' seems to have no effect
Is the pull #18297 really working?
Is the patch supposed to allow empty values in read-only fields?
Thank you very much :-)
How to reproduce
To avoid to reinvent the wheel, please refer to the issue #18228
