Hi Yann, I think that .Web extension will be cool!
Well the attributes can be used for anything not just for the data validation on MVC, so I think it's possible to have some general asserts around that outside the new extension. For me I did two things, the first was to check if there is an attribute on a property, then I thought in the property that will have attributes like Range for example, because don't make sense just check if it exists or not but it's necessary check the minimum and maximum. The first idea is just like you said, Assert.HasAttribute will be enough and the second I couldn't figure out a nice name but it's something that you'll have basically the types (Model and *Attribute), property name to check and the last parameter could be a "Func" that you can check the properties from the Attribute. Well, that was my idea, if you didn't understand anything I can clarify, or if didn't like the idea I'll understand too.
