Wouldn't I need two custom validators, one each for the username and password
fields?
Also, are you suggesting that I perform the authentication inside the custom
validator? That doesn't feel very flexible but I don't know, maybe I'm
missing something. Care to provide an example?
I've been trying to think of other use cases for having setters for the
element errors but I can't say I've thought of any so far. Would it hurt
though?
