Hmm.
There are also special, default validators for checking the type of the
input parameters. Validation is done before the actual type conversion.
I can see how you would want this, as it is yet another abstraction from
the http protocol. The current validators are close to the http
protocol, as they use strings as parameters.
The problem is though that we give yet another method of validating, and
we have to take the order of validations in consideration. If a string
can't be converted to a integer, should we still call the other
validators? Currently that is done, but what to do with the typesafe
validators?
I'm not sure this is a very great idea, but if there are more people +1,
then I'm not against. More provoters please!

The validators are all based on strings. I would rather have a validator that accepts arguments of the right type and the string value`s shouldn`t be transformer more than once..
so:
transform to right type
validate
assign.

Subject: Re: [Wicket-user] why such a strange design in the AbstractValidator
I agree that's an improvement. It's less elegant that we have all those
methods carrying the instance of FormComponent now, but it is better to
have validators thread safe by default.
If we're going to change this, it will mean an API break for a lot of
clients, so this will be 1.1 only. And while we're at it, let's see if
we can improve the validation part further. Phil just filed this:

with which I also agree.
Do other people have votes/ idea's on this?
