Can you clarify your suggestions? Maybe you can provide a concrete example? If I understand correctly you are suggesting to add a second set of validation methods which instead of sets return some other object (which represents a graph). How does this look like in more detail?
The other issue with this approach is Bean Validation does not specify a validation order and there is also the issue that if you are evaluating groups sequences you might have to traverse the object graph multiple times.
Personally this seems all very messy to me, especially as a pure Hibernate Validator feature. Have you considered making a suggestion to the Bean Validation expert group - http://beanvalidation.org/contribute/
