Comments.Text: If you temporarily switch to use the dummy processor does it work? i.e. is it maybe specific to the processor? It works as expected for me on https://dmaster.demo.civicrm.org with the dummy processor.

  I'm not sure if this is due to the way the event registration forms and profiles are used, or something else, but if someone sets more than one participant when registering, and wishes to skip the a participant, the button is ignored, and the profile's 'required entry' is triggered instead.
