I have a form with many user input fields and 5 submit buttons. Each button has its own validation group for its own set of fields. Now there is one user input field which should not be mandatory for one of the buttons but should be mandatory for all other buttons. How can this requirement be implemented?

{"VG1 VG2 VG3 VG4"}

I figured it seemed ridiculous that validationGroup couldn't be an array, I figured there had to be some way to do it ... Not sure if this is the way it is supposed to work, but hey, it does.
