Hi I have a working setup for Clay on this and if there is an interest I can write a small tutorial on the Wiki.
I am going to start a fix for the Shale-validator which is the cause of this later to day and hopefully it will be done in a day or two.

We need to find a configurable option for specifying components in the "javax.faces.Input" family that should be excluded from the commons validator renderer decorator. This looks like a cool component. You might try a workaround. This is a *complete hack* but I think it should solve this problem. The trick would be to change the component family and rendererType. [1] https://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/SHALE-442 Consider: // subclass the component overriding the family and renderer type. package com.acme.InputSuggestAjax public class InputSuggestAjax extends org.apache.myfaces.custom.suggestajax.inputsuggestajax.InputSuggestAjax { public InputSuggestAjax() { setRendererType("com.acme.InputSuggestAjax") } public String getFamily() { return "com.acme.Input"; } } // register the subclassed component in the /WEB-INF/faces-config.xml <component> <component-type>com.acme.InputSuggestAjax</component-type> <component-class>com.acme.InputSuggestAjax</component-class> </component> <render-kit> <renderer> <component-family>com.acme.Input</component-family> <renderer-type>com.acme.InputSuggestAjax</renderer-type> <renderer-class>org.apache.myfaces.custom.suggestajax.inputsuggestajax.InputSuggestAjaxRenderer</renderer-class> </renderer> </render-kit> Depending on if you are using JSP, Clay or Facelets you will need some additional setup.
