Sorry, my answer was a little misleading, too :-) Yes, what I meant by the example code was just to show how the ValidationManager can be called. It doesn't have to be from the Interceptor.
In fact, we use this at work for validating document entry and batch processing from large XML files -> Java data objects -> database.
