I'm surprised at this statement since MandatoryOnTransition works on
Create.html and Update.html but not on Modify.html, but you claim the
problem is in Update.html.

Ticket/Update.html does not redirect to Display.html on submission.
It runs and then calls Display.html like any other mason component
call using $m->comp (equivalent to <& &>. Display.html then redirects to
itself if needed.

MandatoryOnTransaction uses Update.html/BeforeUpdate to break out of
calling Display.html if there was an error.

You would use the same callback.

If BeforeUpdate sets skip_update and pushes things into the
@$results_ref array ref then control will not be dispatched to
Display.html and instead Update.html will redisplay with a message at
the top for the user.

Simple code that demonstrates this not working, or a
MandatoryOnTransaction config where this does not work are needed to
continue this conversation.
