Yuriy Lazarev updated JBSEAM-4172:
----------------------------------

           Issue Type: Bug  (was: Feature Request)
        Fix Version/s:     (was: 2.1.0.GA)
    Affects Version/s: 2.1.2.CR1
          Description: 
Suppose such form elements:

<s:decorate template="/template/form_item.xhtml">

  <ui:define name="label">
    <h:outputText value="#{messages.old_password}" />
  </ui:define>

  <h:inputSecret id="old_password" value="#{updateProfileAction.password}" />

</s:decorate>


<s:decorate template="/template/form_item.xhtml">
  <ui:define name="label">
    <h:outputText value="#{messages.new_password}" />
  </ui:define>
  <h:inputSecret id="new_password" value="#{updateProfileAction.passwordNew}">
    <s:validateEquality for="old_password" messageId="new_password_is_equal_to_old" operator="not_equal" />
  </h:inputSecret>
</s:decorate>

<s:decorate template="/template/form_item.xhtml">
  <ui:define name="label">
    <h:outputText value="#{messages.repeat_new_password}" />
  </ui:define>
  <h:inputSecret value="#{updateProfileAction.passwordNewRepeat}">
      <s:validateEquality for="new_password" messageId="new_passwords_dont_match" />
      <ui:remove>
        This component is implicitly required (org.jboss.seam.ui.renderkit.EqualityValidationRendererBase:46 = evh.setRequired(true);)
        It makes impossible to achieve such behavior:
        1) If both password fields are blank then its ok - user doesn't want to change his old password.
        2) If there is any text in one of the fields - check if values are equal and update password only if they are.
</ui:remove>
  </h:inputSecret>
</s:decorate>

At the moment validation fails for empty fields as they are required.

  was:
Extension of h:inputSecret.

Renders two input fields. Attaches a validator by default that checks both fields are the same. Use like

<s:inputPassword value="#{identity.password}" />

Advantages: No backing bean logic required, validation done at correct point

           Complexity: Medium
