This is a more generic version of this question. In general, can I cause a JSF lifecycle validation to occur on an element that does not implement EditableValueHolder. This seems like a silly question, but there are widget libraries that seem to supply widgets that have this problem.

You cannot force a validation to occur on it directly. You need to wrap it in a class that implements EditableValueHolder. Then you create and register the Validator for that type.
