Hey,
I've some problems with form validation. It's specific to my use-case:
1. an edit form is build with all possible fields with their validators. E.g. 
field productReference which is required when shown
2. on setting the model for this edit form, the application takes care of 
setting the visibility of the fields: if field in model then field is 'visible' 
else field is 'excluded'



Suppose a field that is marked required becomes excluded then a user will not 
be able to ever get the form submitted.



There surely are ways to bypass this scenario, but maybe it's nice to support 
it by adding a visibility-check for fields in the validate function of 
qx.ui.form.validation.Manager.
I still can imagine that it might be useful to have a validation on hidden 
items. I can think of a scenario where some visible input fields fill a non 
visible input field and you still want to run the validation on that hidden 
field. So I don't think that this i a general pattern we should / could add to 
the frameworks code base.

Regards,
Martin
