Norman Richards commented on JBSEAM-432:
----------------------------------------

So then I'd interpret the request as being "find a way to turn off s:validateAll" for some submissions? 

I don't see how this is generally valuable.  This only would be interesting for the small subset of models that consist of string values.  Otherwise, you will still not be able to perform "back" navigation for invalid fields requiring conversion.  (numbers, dates. etc...)   Maybe that is acceptable?  I guess that's what would have happened with @IfInvalid anyways.  If you have data that fails JSF validation (everything but model validation) your back button wouldn't work then, right?
