I'm curious as to what everyone's hate for @validate is.  I have been a long
time user of FormEncode and new to Pylons and found @validate pretty damn
slick.  I've got custom validators and chained validators and never really
had a complaint.  I've definitely ran into situations that have me
scratching head as to how I am going to get it to work but there always
seems to be a way and it ends up being reasonably elegant with FormEncode.
