If I recall correctly, some of the standard validation helpers will
take an "if" parameter, such that if the parameter evaluates to false,
the validation is not applied. If worst comes to worst, you can
validate with a method you write yourself, that looks at that flag and
Does The Right Thing depending on whether it's set.
