I think you need to do this yourself, using the builtin AJAX
facilities, rather than using any of the builtin validation facilities.
Say you were looking to make sure a username was unique on signup.
Place an actionlink beside the field ("check availability"). The
actionlink would need context (the username). The actionlink can
update a zone containing the text field, and which also has some
hidden divs containing the validation messages (just as a field with
regular validation would be decorated). Display/hide the validation
message div based on a flag set by the actionlink handler (which
would obviously check the db for username uniqueness).
That would be my first try (there are some pieces in there which
might not work the way I'm thinking) - you could also do it with a
mixin (see the AutoComplete component).

Subject: [T5] Ajax validation
If this topic has been discussed, please point me to the right
place. It
seems that, by default, tapestry 5 only does client side validation
when
you tab out of the input field. Server side validation happens on the
form submit only. How can I enable server side validation on a
field by
field basis, i.e., via ajax onblur event?
