I think he was asking if there was a way to declaratively define validations based on runtime dynamics, like the user name. This strikes me as a fantastically bad idea, since 'declaratively' and 'runtime dynamics' are kinda... diametrically opposed. I think that either a) the problem needs to be re-stated to fit in to the existing framework, or b) a different framework (possibly hanging off of commons-validation or possibly even the Struts wrapping of same) should be used. That said, I'll be interested in hearing other opinions as this might be a generally-useful tool (role-based validations would be useful to me and I'd like to see how others might implement that as a bag on top of the existing framework.)
