Re: validators.All

Thanks - that looks like the same thread I found previously on
sourceforge.

However, the conclusion was that there is "unnecessary cleverness" and
further investigation seems to suggest this problem exists for all
Compound Validators (including those used by the MultipleSelectionField
in TurboGears) and for all attributes to do with empty cases (if_empty,
empty_value, if_missing and not_empty)

Therefore is there anything likely to be done about this or is this
behaviour supposed to happen?
