I think it was on-purpose: validation is done before any invocation is processed, so you can safely send the same invocations back to the server after making changes to the proxies so they validate the next time. I guess the idea is that you then only change proxies and fire the context again, without enqueueing your invocations once more.
Failures however can happen at any time during invocations processing. Clearing invocations would work in many cases, but not all: you'll send the same operations, but the domain objects might have change as a result of a previous successful invocation (RequestFactory doesn't make any assumption on the use of transactions, so things have not necessarily been rolled back; actually in your case, our datastore –MongoDB– doesn't have that concept of transaction, and we successfully use RF with it; and similarly, AppEngine transactions are so specific that you won't enclose your whole RF request in a transaction), so applying the operations might very well fail (e.g. entity has been deleted, or its state has changed so that a setter now throws an exception). You'd probably rather want to copy the edited entities to another context. I haven't checked but it might be possible using AutoBeanUtils.getAutoBean and AutoBean.clone before a context.edit().
