I had this problem too. I solved it avoiding tapestry validator system
and building a custom javascript library that performs heavy client-side
validation. I can validate dates/numbers/selections and more and it can
be expanded with Ajax to do server side validation too.

On each submit button I can specify if I've to validate the entire form
or I can set which fields validate before submit. I set validation rules
using custom attributes on tag.

Regards

Fabio.
