Nope, that wasn't included. I see the point though.
Does it make more sense to run that before displaying error messages, or
afterwards? How to name it? beforeErrorDisplay? afterValidation?
beforeFailure?
Either before or after would be fine I think. The reason is that you might
want to do something additional to let the user know that some errors
occurred. Sometimes an error label and focusing the field isn't enough to
grab the user's attention. In my case, I trigger an alert('One or more
errors occurred, please adjust the indicated fields'), which forces the user
to acknowledge that an error occurred.
As far as naming...maybe onError or something like that? I also like
renaming errorPlacement to errorHandler, since you can do much more than
just the placement there.
