On a web form, for optimization reasons, we don't need to submit all fields from the referenced entity, only the entity id. So yes, turning off validation on referenced entities and only validating the referenced id seems like the best solution to me.
With the cascading validation as it is now, how would that work where entity A is related to entity B that his related to entity C? Am I correct in assuming that for this flow to work correctly, all fields of entities A, B and C must be validated in order for validation of A to pass? I doubt I am the first one to use this use case of including a referenced entity in a web form. It is very common. How are others addressing this issue?
