Personally, I like the "you obviously meant" behavior -- turning dynamic on should imply validation is turned on if not already on. Turning validation off should turn dynamic off if it isn't already off.

(What we *really* want is a single parameter, validationMode, which covers all the combinations of schema/dtd must/may/must-not be consulted. But given how the APIs have been standardized, it's a bit late to make that large a change.)
