I included the provided patch in 8d3bb01.

I initially did that because I thought that validation would fail if the schema key was defined as required in the schema and the user left the box unchecked. Having checked with a real example, I realized that required has another meaning in Web browsers: a required checkbox must be checked for validation to succeed in a Web browser that supports the required attribute. Since that's not the meaning of the required property in JSON Schema, I disabled the addition of a required attribute to checkbox fields in 4a00a47.

That second change means that there is no way to define a checkbox that users must check before they proceed (a typical example would the infamous "by clicking here, you agree with our terms of service"). I do not know how to express such a flag in JSON Schema though.
