Thiago, I was also looking for something to give me a mandatory symbol to decorate my form fields and stumbled across your post. When I try your example, and other variations on it I've found from other sources, I get an issue that has previously been raised:
org.apache.tapestry5.ioc.internal.util.TapestryException: Failure reading parameter 'validate' of component core/PropertyEditBlocks:textfield: No object of type org.apache.tapestry5.services.PropertyEditContext is available from the Environment.

I notice in http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAP5-328 Howard mentions this has been fixed in 5.0.16 - are you still using this version and if not have you found a tidy workaround, or perhaps you are not using such a decorator recently? I see a suggested patch/fix listed in TAP5-328 though would tend to agree with the rejection reasons for the patch. I'm using 5.1.0.5. Thanks.
