Hi, I think this is a good idea. I used callables with @validate in TG1 to generate validation schemes dynamically. I remember that I was thinking about the possibility of passing callables to TG2 @validate over a half a year ago (here http://trac.turbogears.org/browser/trunk/tg/controllers.py?rev=6421#L152). Then I decided that it would overly complicate the logic as form objects are also callable. Imagine that you add an 'elif callable(validation.validators)' clause at the bottom. Inside this block you'd have to repeat all of the above checks with the object returned after calling validation.validators(): # ... elif callable(validation.validators): result = validation.validators() if isinstance(result, dict): # ...
