If you say sporadic, does it mean validating one and the same POJO
sometimes shows the issue and in some other cases it doesn't, without
altering any parts of the code?

Interesting, this doesn't seem correct indeed. Without having a closer look
I'd say the un-wrapper should be reset on the context between validation of
different properties.
