Closes #438 Note: this solution is different than what @jasonblais suggested. @jasonblais suggested not highlighting the field that hasn't been filled out yet, but I think it's a better UX to continue to highlight them all as it currently does, but to clarify the error messages. Also notably, as far as I can tell, the react-bootstrap [forms API](https://react-bootstrap.github.io/components/forms/) does not appear to support selectively highlighting some fields in the form but not others anyway.
