--------------------------------------------
Hi,
I am coming from TOMAHAWK-850 where I have reported errors regarding
displayValueOnly="true" and required="true" on tomahawk UIInput components. The
current svn and the latest patch (patch2.txt) will not resolve these issues. I
know that this should be handled as an issue in TOMAHAWK, but fixing the
problem can only begin when UIInput settled.

> A component with a required value will not fail validation as expected if the
> submitted value is null. This issue is not seen normally because browsers
> send the value for an empty text field as an empty string. That is, the POST
> data for an empty field1 will contain the field name but no value, like
> field1=&field2=something. However, if you use a man-in-the-middle proxy such
> as Paros to remove "fieldname=" from the POST data, the submitted value will
> be null. UIInput.validate() skips validation for null submitted values, but
> since requiredness is also part of validation, the requiredness check gets
> skipped, too.
