   I am going to push back on this one and keep the abstraction here. I fully 
understand the point you're making and agree that this validation 
implementation will be sufficient for most users. That said, there are many 
databases out there, and just like someone might need to override our SELECT 
statement for their DB, having a generic validation method gives people a level 
of freedom I believe we need to support for this to be a generic interface.
