Hi,
I don't think a custom validator for each inputfield is a good solution.
Providing a parameter with the error message is a better solution IMHO.
But there are component libraries that provide those options out of the box.
For example Apache Trinidad provides a requiredMessageDetail attribute on
the tr:inputText component.
See:
