I just updated our .NET 8 Blazor webapp from Telerik 5.0.1 to 5.1.1. Now, interacting with any input in a form applies validation classes to all other inputs in the form. I hope this behavior is unintentional as it could lead to user confusion. I believe this was introduced in the 5.0.1 update which was supposed to fix the issue of validation classes being present on initial render. I could find no other documentation or discussion regarding this.
This behavior can be seen in the Form - Validation demo...

Type valid input in the Graduate Grade field and all other fields turn green even though they don't have valid input...
Clicking Submit to show that those fields are not valid.
