> This is related to TAPESTRY-636. When a form's refresh listener is called,
> client-side validation is bypassed but server-side errors still show up. This
> becomes a problem if you want to refresh a form but not show any errors.
> Calling clearErrors() on the validation delegate does get rid of the error
> messages but it also clears any invalid data entered by the user, which is an
> unwanted side-affect. While onsite, Howard suggested a fix where errors kept
> in the validation delegate and errored field decoration would be switched off
> if the form's refresh listener was called. This would make the refresh
> listener on Form much more useful. One undesired side-affect might be that if
> errors are already displayed on the page from a previous form submission and
> the user does something to refresh the form, the errors would disappear.
> USE CASE: The user is filling out a self profile beginning with name and
> address, mistakenly enters '12e45' for the zip code, and then uploads a photo
> which automatically refreshes the form for a preview. Errors are displayed
> about the zip code and the remaining required fields which haven't been
> filled in only because the user hasn't gotten to them yet. Calling
> clearErrors() would get rid of the errors, but it would also clear the zip
> code entered by the user. Ideally, the form should maintain all input and not
> display any errors during this form refresh.
