If you set 952$d (date acquired or "dateaccessioned") as mandatory in your MARC framework, you'll be unable to edit or add items because item form validation fails with error "1 mandatory fields empty".

To reproduce:

1. Edit a MARC framework of your choice (e.g. Default)
2. Locate 952$d "Date acquired" and click Edit
/cgi-bin/koha/admin/marc_subfields_structure.pl?op=add_form&tagfield=952&frameworkcode=#subdfield
3. Tick "Mandatory" checkbox
4. Save changes
5. Edit any item using MARC framework you edited in step 1
/cgi-bin/koha/cataloguing/additem.pl?op=edititem&biblionumber=123&itemnumber=456
6. Set "Date acquired" to any date
7. Click Save
8. Observe error "- 1 mandatory fields empty (highlighted)" (JavaScript alert)
