Required for registration fields lost forever!

On Joomla 1.5 w/CB 1.1

Suppose you create a field titled 'address' such that 'Required' = true, 'Profile' = true, 'Registration' = true, and 'Published' = true.

If your 'whiny' users complain about your publication of the 'address' field and you change this field to 'Published' = false then it disappears completely. Thus admins looking for this field in the admin console under 'User Management' Cannot see the entries for the existing users. The users cannot see their own address to update it, and new users cannot see it in the registration screen to satisfy the initial requirements! The only positive thing is users cannot see this field for other users...

Please help!

Thanks,

Cris
