XPages - field update not working when a required field is present

I'm updating a field using partial refresh which works fine except when a required field is present. Then the update does not work at all. Can anyone explain why? Here is my code.

<xp:panel rendered="true">
    <xp:table>

        <xp:tr>
            <xp:td>My Value:</xp:td>
            <xp:td>
                <xp:inputText id="ValueField"
                    value="#{document1.ValueField}">
                </xp:inputText>
            </xp:td>
        </xp:tr>
        <xp:tr>
            <xp:td>Required Field:&#160;</xp:td>
            <xp:td>
                <xp:inputText id="inputText1" required="true"></xp:inputText></xp:td>
        </xp:tr>
    </xp:table>
</xp:panel>

<xp:panel rendered="true">
    <xp:table>
        <xp:tr>
            <xp:td>
                <xp:button id="button3" value="Set Value">
                    <xp:eventHandler event="onclick" submit="true"
                        refreshMode="partial" refreshId="ValueField">
                        <xp:this.action><![CDATA[#{javascript:document1.setValue("ValueField","12345")}]]></xp:this.action>
                    </xp:eventHandler>
                </xp:button>
            </xp:td>
        </xp:tr>
    </xp:table>
</xp:panel>

The update works fine if the required attribute for inputText1 is set to false.

This question is similar to my previous query but for the sake of clarity I decided to post it separately.

The way around this is to check the box "process data without validation" on the event tab

The validation phase is processed in the JSF lifecycle, if you do a full or a partial refresh and thats why no fields is updated.
