Nope. The validator uses the same rules as Python itself, so if one
thing evaluates to True in Python it will be True for the validator.
Also remember that everything you get from the web is a string:
>>> from turbogears.validators import Bool
>>> v = Bool()
>>> v.to_python(0)
False
>>> v.to_python("0")
True
>>> v.to_python('')
False
>>>
Be seeing you,
