What I usually do is verify everything client-side with javascript to do all the fancy red letters and shaking or what have you, then make sure every piece of data is what I think it is, server-side, and return a generic error if it's not. That way clients get a full UI experience, and evil hackers get to spend more time figuring out how to attack my application :-P.
Probably not the best way to do it, but it works for me!
