I was looking for a functionality in wt that would allow say:
I have WRegExp reg("ABC") as a validator, a textbox will only allow me 
to enter characters that satisfies reg, and not show red as in the case 
of Wt textboxes.

I am currently also looking into sub-classing the WLineEdit or 
Ext::LineEdit instead.

Well, if what you've suggested below will come up with the same effect, 
why not. At least, we have that function. :)
