Trying to follow the Pylons/twForms tutorial
(http://wiki.pylonshq.com/display/toscawidgets/Using+twForms+with+Pylons.+Part+1)
I get the following traceback when trying to render the form:
Traceback (most recent call last):

TypeError: unbound method message() must be called with DefaultValidator instance as first argument (got str instance instead)
using FormEncode 0.7.2dev-r3105, ToscaWidgets? 0.1a2dev-r3614 and twForms 0.1a2dev-r3616.
The problem seems to come from the form's schema validators all being the DefaultValidator class itself, on which Schema._to_python calls the instance method message(). The relevant part of code is in formencode.schema, lines 152 to 173. I first thought there was a typo with InputWidget using the DefaultValidator class (instead of an instance of...), but it looks like it's by design since there are a couple of places where InputWidget.validator is identity tested against DefaultValidator, so...
NB : of course, the form renders ok when validators are explicitely added to the fields.
