Eddy, I can't think of any reason, aside the fact that it's
implementation-specific... ie. the implementation "decorates" fields
that have validation errors with the type of error... but feel free to
dive into the code. For me, what's important to note is that those
"decorated" fields allow me to control what information is displayed
when a valiation error occurs... for instance, using:

<!--B 'MANDATORY:foo'-->You gotta hit me with a foo :)<!--/B-->

allows me to send that custom message to the user, when the mandatory
object foo is not provided; failing to provide a value for that
decorated field will just show "MANDATORY:foo" (not very useful) to
the user.

hth,
