Well, I think the stack trace is a bit confused by all the
inspect_cal, perform_call, stuff in the controller anyway, but I
pretty much agree that if both validate and expose maintain the same
form there is a nice symmetry to that.   Plus I agree that the current
validation setup is easy to understand, and I hope adding a callable
and the specific hook toscawidget hook where you can pass a form (or
anything with a .validate method) to the @validate, and possibly the
suggested ability to pass a generic callable in, should provide enough
flexibility.

But I think we should wait for Alberto to make his argument before we
make a final decision.   But in the meantime I'm adding tickets for
improving the current validation system.
