I did something similar to this, and also added a Velocity Tool to make FormProc easier to use. I've uploaded the first blush in the patches area.

Next I'm working on support for Maps and passing parameters to a Singleton version of the controller.

Check out how to make a Controller using formproc http://sourceforge.net/projects/formproc/
Make your own controller ie. AbstractValidationController that runs code like this:
log.info("AbstractValidationController.validate() started.");
try {
this.getContext().getParams().remove("form");
if (this.form != null) {
FormManager fm = new FormManager(); HttpForm form = new HttpForm(this.form, null); fm.configure(form);
log.debug("Validating form.");
this.validationResults = form.process(this.getRequest());
if (!this.validationResults.isValid()) { log.debug("Form validation failed. Returning to input."); log.info("AbstractValidationController.validate() ended."); return INPUT; }
log.debug("Form validated successfully. Continuing execution.");
} else { log.debug("Skipping validation. No \"form\" controller parameter was specified. Continuing execution."); }
} catch (Exception e) { log.info("AbstractValidationController.validate() failed."); throw e; }
log.info("AbstractValidationController.validate() ended.");
Then just put parameters to controller that denote the name of the form. In this case the parametrer is "form". Then just extend that controller whenever you need automatic validation via formproc.
