The best solution available to handle these kinds of situations is the
subForm component.

You can then selectively submit and validate parts of your form while
leaving other inputs in a "submitted but not processed" state.
I've tried writing a framework to handle it the way you proposed, but
it's not worth the effort and has too many limitations.
http://wiki.apache.org/myfaces/OptionalValidationFramework
If I understood correctly with subForm you can't skip component
validation (but not conversion) on a per request basis.
based on the available documentation OptionalValidationFramework looks
like exactly what I need. Does it work with the JSF RI 1.1?
Do you recommend using a released package or should i build from source?
btw, it might be good to mention the repository checkout URL
(http://jsf-comp.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/jsf-comp/trunk/OptionalValidator)
on the Wiki since it's a bit different from the repository browse URL.
