Clear selectManyMenu component if user unselects item in JSF 2
I am working with JSF 2.3 and have a `selectManyMenu` component that is marked as `required` but that I want to be cleared if the user unselects all items. Currently, the user can unselect all items, but the backing bean will still have the last selected item retained. This causes the UI to not reflect what will actually get stored in the database. 

How can I get the UI to reflect that the user has deselected all items without removing the `required` attribute?
