Thank you all for your answers, I like Marko's approach.
What I had in mind, related to OP's post, would be a middleware that does > (binding [*validation-failures* []] > (handler req) > (do-something-about *validation-failures*)) > There would be a global function, such as *add-failure*, which would *conj > * a new failure to the vector. Being a Clojure novice I had no idea that this was a possibility and it sounds like a better approach than exception throwing. Is this something similar to the way lib-noir does it? https://github.com/noir-clojure/lib-noir/blob/master/src/noir/validation.clj see the set-error fn. I would still code my own library because I am learning clojure at the moment. Question: how is it possible to guarantee that the *failure-list* or *error-list* is only available to the current request. Is that one of the properties of :dynamic?
