A validation that doesn't make itself known? I've seen that where there's a 
validation that fails, but there's no corresponding code to flag that to the 
user. Depending on your UI flow, if the page layout doesn't change (e.g. ajax-y 
stuff), it may not be apparent to the user that something failed.
