Since the issue is data validity, programming is what's important.
That said, something I find even more annoying is a large form that is validated on the server, which when presented again if there is a validation error, has lost half the data you had submitted.That's just lazy programming. It is very easy to preload a form before shipping out to the browser. I recently had to reload a form completely client side, which is slightly trickier. (Needed to use JS and cookies, but since it was for a controlled audience, I could dictate the requirements.)
