[jboss-user] [JBoss Seam] - s:validate ignores annotations if custom validator specified

[ASavitsky]

I have an entity that contains email property:
@Email private String email;

This property is also subject to a unique constraint, which is coded in the backing bean:

public void validateEmail(FacesContext context, UIComponent component, Object value) {
  |    // some custom code that validates email uniqieness in DB...
  | }

Now, when these two are combined in the view, the @Email constraint gets ignored:

<s:validate><h:inputText value="#{selectedUser.email}"
  | validator="#{userController.validateEmail}" /></s:validate>

Is this an expected behavior, or a bug?
