2. Create required select option chooser

<parameter name="category*id" xsi:type="block" visible="true" required="true" sort*order="50"]
    [label translate="true"]Category[/label]
    [depends]
        [parameter name="type" value="category" /]
    [/depends]
    [block class="Magento\Catalog\Block\Adminhtml\Category\Widget\Chooser"]
        [data]
            [item name="button" xsi:type="array"]
                [item name="open" xsi:type="string" translate="true"]Select Category...[/item]
            [/item]
        [/data]
    [/block]
[/parameter]
{code}
1. Create a **custom input/textarea** with validation classes using a custom block
{code:xml}
[parameter name="reviews*to_display" xsi:type="block" visible="true" required="true" sort*order="60"]
    [label translate="true"]Reviews to Display[/label]
    [depends]
        [parameter name="type" value="category" /]
    [/depends]
    [block class="Vendor\Module\Block\Adminhtml\Widget\Parameter\Number" /]
[/parameter]
{code}
{code:php}
[?php

declare(strict_types=1);

namespace Vendor\Module\Block\Adminhtml\Widget\Parameter;

use Magento\Backend\Block\Template;
use Magento\Backend\Block\Template\Context;
use Magento\Framework\Data\Form\Element\AbstractElement;
use Magento\Framework\Data\Form\Element\Factory as ElementFactory;

class Number extends Template
{
    /**
    * @var ElementFactory
     */
    private $elementFactory;

    /**
    * @param Context $context
    * @param ElementFactory $elementFactory
    * @param array $data
     */
    public function __construct(
        Context $context,
        ElementFactory $elementFactory,
        array $data = []
    ) {
        $this-]elementFactory = $elementFactory;
        parent::__construct($context, $data);
    }

    /**
    * @param AbstractElement $element
    * * @return AbstractElement
     */
    public function prepareElementHtml(AbstractElement $element)
    {
        $input = $this->elementFactory->create('text', ['data' => $element->getData()>);
        $input->setId($element->getId());
        $input->setForm($element->getForm());
        $input->setData('class', 'widget-option input-text admin__control-text');
        $input->addClass('validate-number')->addClass('validate-greater-than-zero');
        if ($element->getData('required')) {
            $input->addClass('required-entry');
        }

        $element->setData('after*element*html', $input->getElementHtml());
        $element->setData('value', null);

        return $element;
    }
}

1. Create new Widget
2. Change depended select
3. Press Save button

Expected result (*)

1. When the chooser is hidden, the validation does not run on hidden nested inputs
   
2. The input location and associated label should be hidden according to the dependency
   

Actual result (*)

1. Validation triggers on hidden nested input fields
   
   Switch select to display chooser
   

2. Only the input field is hidden, the label remains visible
