Body: <p>I'm not sure if this is a bug or I'm doing this wrong. I have an asset volume called "Blog Images" and there is a custom required field called Image alt text. If I add images in assets section I'm required to put something in for the alt text, that's good because that what I intended. But I'm using a matrix block that has an asset field that looks to this volume and I am able to upload and image to this volume and not add anything in this field. What am I doing wrong? </p>
  
  <p>Also I should mention this is using Craft 3.</p>

Comments.Text: You mean you are able to upload an image without entering text even though "alt text" it is a required field at this volume?
  I think the required field only works as required once the picture is uploaded and you open it and want to save it again.
