Question validation ignores parent question/page section condition rules.

When a question is not displayed because its parent section condition attribute in the page flow evalutates to false, the question level validation is still enforecd.

For example, take a drop down with a ? set as default. If this questions partent (or grandparent) section (pageSection or questionSection) has a condition that evaluated to false, the drop down will not appear on the page, however the page will still check the question value when submitted, and with it defaulting to ? it will generate a required error. Meaning the page flow cannot progress - the field is required, but not visible to set.


ie
