commons-validator question: why isn't there a public accessor forfield in ValidatorResult?

[Mike Janson]

I was wondering if someone could tell me a practical reason why the 
field property of ValidatorResult is protected yet no public accessor 
exists for it.

I'm currently using DynaValidatorForms in Struts, and I have a 
requirement for field error-dependent flow control.  Unless there's some 
other way to track errors back to fields that I'm unaware of, the lack 
of a public accessor means I'm going to have to extend at least 4 
classes (including a fair chunk of code), including Validator and 
ValidatorResult (to add the accessor).
