In my 14+ years of writing web apps, I've found that 99% of the time, the model should have the validation rules for fields as part of the model. 80%+ of the time, the model and fields should have a reasonable default for display and user interaction. There's nothing that forces the use of the default display or user interaction methods, but having them close is very, very helpful.
