Is there a way to validate components without using the visitor validator?

Perhaps something like an ognl style of work with the properties such as:

field: component.compInternalProperty
validator: requiredstring

Then, instead of using visitor and writing a validaiton.xml for the
component, I can simply have a requiredstring validator validate the
component's internal property.

I have a current dilemma where my model/components classes are part of
another source package/project (my base framework project which shouldn't
contain those validation files), and my actions are in another
package/project.  I would prefer to have the model/component validation file
be in the same package as my action since different actions will be using
the same model but with different validation requirements.

Of course, I know you can create different validation files for the
different actions, but that doesn't help me with the current project layout.
I wanna be able to be the validation files for the models somewhere else.  I
guess my current workaround is to actually create a package name that is
exactly the same as the one in the framework project (ie. a.b.c) and then
put the validation files in there so that the resource loader will find it
properly.

Just wondering if you guys might have a better way of working around this
issue.

Thanks,
Chris
