Description

Currently, client side validation occurs only as the user submits the form.

It would be better if validation occured for individual fields as the user tabs out of them.

Validation would be re-run at form submit (and of course, again on the server).

This radically changes the way that input validation errors are displayed; I've been working on a kind of "bubble" that is positioned above the field to contain the error message.
