Hi Ned, Here my 2 cents,
If you look at the Form.process method you'll see that only after validating the model object is updated. There is no hook that you can use to get a callback after the model object is updated. The only way I see is to override the process method itself (which is not recommended btw). I think it might be a better solution to create a IFormValidator and call your SpringValidator from there. Then you can pass in the Form object itself into the Spring Validators and validate that instead of your Model objects. Also: When you allow invalid values in your Model you are basically putting you model classes in an illegal state which (depending on your code of course) can lead to strange behavior. In general it is good practice to only allow objects to be in a valid state, which of course depends on your definition of valid state :-).
