Or, if you set an "id" on the tr:inputText and add a tr:message
component, what happens?

Removing it and clicking the link prints a nice message next to the
form field.  Also, adding
<tr:message for="foo" />
and setting the input's id to foo gives the same effect.  So I think
you're right, it silently chokes if there isn't anywhere to show the
message.

 simple="true" means
there's no implict message component in the content.

My suspicion is that the client-side validation is trying
to show the error message inline, failing to find anywhere
to write the message, and just swallowing it.  We
could either:
  1. show these messages as JS alerts
  2. show these messages in some other block of content,
    picked perhaps arbitrarily  (in tr:messages by default,
     otherwise at the head of the page?)
  3. blow off client-side validation altogether for those elements
