I haven't done that before, so I'll have to figure out how to do it. Thanks for the advice....I'll look into doing that, because I have seen this recommendation made to others, so I should probably learn.
However, in the meantime, I think I may have a theory as to why this is happening. When the error was reproduced for me, it seems to happen only during certain errors uploading attachments using the MultiFileUploadField. Now that certain other issues were fixed with this control, I can only reproduce this problem by trying to upload a file larger than the maximum set in Form#setMaxSize. What you said earlier, about how only fields that failed validation should fail to be retained in the form, got me to thinking: since this restriction is set in the Form object, does that block the model update for ALL fields? That would make sense, but it would also make this method nearly unusable except on a dedicated form (i.e. a form used only for uploading files). In that case, I'm better off manually validating upload size.
