I'm not sure if this is a good solution, since those messages are not specifically recognized as being validation errors, and so this wouldn't work together with fi:validation-errors. Maybe the best would be to allow adding validation errors (multiple ones) on the form itself.
The form itself becomes ValidationErrorAware? I searched for it when thinking about a solution, but unfortunately the form is not implementing the interface.
So +1.
fi:validation-errors would then better be replaced with a ft:validation-errors (which can crawl the widget tree), since otherwise it wouldn't find the errors attached to the form.
Hmm, I guess it is also possible to add a fi:validation-message to the form widget as it is done for all other widgets. It must be possible to differ between form widget (= global) validation errors, collected "somewhere" and widget specific errors. In other words I do not want to be forced to collect all errors at one place just because of using ft:validation-errors for the global errors.
But +1 for the idea in general.
