You could omit the 'required' => true in the validation rules and keep an 'allowEmpty' => false instead. This way upon sign up both fields need to be filled in, but on changing, you don't need to submit both. For the 'unique' problem, you might have to check if the email is the same as what is already saved, and if so, don't bother saving it.
