[Catalyst] Using multiple Data::FormValidator profiles

[Hartmaier Alexander]

Wow thats cool!
At the moment i use Hash::Merge with the option 
'Hash::Merge::set_behavior('STORAGE_PRECEDENT');' to join two profiles (they 
are normal hashes) to get this behaviour, but support for more than one 
profile is welcome!

Subject: [Catalyst] Using multiple Data::FormValidator profiles

I have separate CDBI classes for user and address details, each with its
own Data::FormValidator profile. I need to collect details for both
classes using a single form, which naturally needs to do error checking
and repopulation after failed submission.

This is all straightforward, but currently I use the FillInForm plugin
for these tasks and have found it can only cope with a single DFV
profile via $c->form.

More recent releases of Data::FormValidator support multiple profiles:

   Data::FormValidator->new( user_profile => ..., address_profile => ...)

I'm thinking it might be useful if the FillInForm plugin was updated to
support @$c->forms or %$c->forms rather than just $c->form. Happy to
patch it if necessary, but I'd like to know what others think.
