the javadoc is not finished but it is coming tomorrow morning so no need to complain about that just yet.
it feels so good to finish the day at 1am working on wicket! no joke, havent had the chance to do this in a while :)

to ease the pain i was thinking of something like this
IValidationContext { Object getValue(); void error(List,Map); }
and FormComponent implements IValidationContext
where getValue would map onto getConvertedInput() and error would map directly (obviously we already have getvalue() so it would have to be called something else)
it still lacks but at least i would be able to reuse the same validators in a non-wicket context. it also would be great to provide a seperate wicket-validation.jar or some such.
what do you guys think? i havent thought this through in any amount of detail, so perhaps there are better ways to do this.
error(List,Map) is a bit dirty as well, maybe it can be cleaned up somehow.
it will also make validators easier to understand because when you see validate(FormComponent) your first thought is "what the hell do i do now?" where some sort of IValidationContext would be more expressive and guide the user better.
