+1 for turning off the onBlur validation

We have done some UI testing on users trying to use a registration wizard
which collects some mandatory data on step 1 and have found it unacceptable
that validation bubbles are popping up whenever users jump between fields.

Do I have to ditch custom side validation altogether or is there a
workaround? I would like the custom side validation only happens when the
user submits the form(fragment).

Cheers,
Borut
