Comment 2 for bug 522139

I am not binding parameters to objects in this case, so I have an action method like
public static void foo(@Required String name){ // would add new Error with key 'name'
Person person=new Person(name);
validation.valid(person); // I have another validation in the Person class, so this would add error with key 'person.name'
validation.valid(null, person) would add error with key 'null.name' which makes no sense anyway

I want the ability to unite the two validation approaches easily
