With the "partially validation" the event prevent user from writing in the field if the condition is invalid (Validator.isPartiallyValid()). Sometimes you just want to ask the user that what is writing is not valid and not refusing.
The ValidationError object have 2 state WARNING and ERROR, but this difference is not used.

I modify the code in the ValueBinding class to change the behave of the targetChangingListener :

    private final IValueChangingListener targetChangingListener = new IValueChangingListener() {
        public boolean handleValueChanging(IVetoableValue source, ValueDiff diff) {
            if (updating)
                return true;
            // we are notified of a pending change, do validation
            // and veto the change if it is not valid
            Object value = diff.getNewValue();
            ValidationError partialValidationError = targetValidator
                    .isPartiallyValid(value);
            partialValidationErrorObservable.setValue(partialValidationError);
            return partialValidationError == null || partialValidationError.status == ValidationError.WARNING;
        }
    };

Then i the state is error the writing is refused, if the state is warning the ValidationError is returned but the writing is accepted.
