It's a good idea! I don't think I'll and change it at this point, 
though. When I was rewriting the last section, I considered 
showing two versions of a templated function -- one that uses the 
validator in a constraint and one that uses it at runtime -- but 
I worried that would add more noise. The msg pragma and the 
writeln kept the focus more narrow (which is something that kept 
coming up in feedback). And at that point, I was ready to be done 
with it. I worked on that post for a significant chunk of two 
days.
