      Summary

      When attempting to clone an issue that contains required fields, JIRA displays a generic workflow error instead of the required fields message.

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Install a trial of the "Scripting Suite Pro" plugin or any other plugin that has a workflow validator for fields;
      2. Create a test project;
      3. Create a dummy issue in the project;
      4. Edit the project workflow and add a "Jython Validator" function on the Create transition with the following inline script:
        ----------------
        invalid_fields = {}
        invalid_fields["Summary"] = "must have proper summary"
        description = "Failed validation test"
        result = False
        ------------
      5. Publish the workflow.
      6. Attempt to clone the dummy issue created
