Rails - Jul 2012 - has_many association with autosave issues

I''d like to use autosave => true for an association for its added
benefits:
the parent doesn''t save unless the children saves.  However, it seems
to
skip validations when saving the children.  And this seems to be the case 
since the beginning of time...

Anyone know why?

Sometimes it''s useful - if you want the save to fail if any child has 
errors, use validates_associated:
