Having been at the receiving end of web developer rants many times, the reason
more often than not is that the database does the checking after the fact, i.e.
after the user spend the time providing the data. Web developers need to know
what's allowed when they throw up the page. And frameworks offer little or no
help in retrieving these validation rules. So the web developer is almost forced to
roll his own.
