+1
I prefer to throw exceptions in case of an error instead of trying to be 
smarter than the developer ;)
And unlike Christopher I don't think it's necessary to allow 
invalid/missing annotations as they're part of the code in FLOW3..

Imagine this example:

/**
  * param $foo integer
*/
public function($foo) {
	// $foo is an integer?
}

note the missing "@" for the param annotation.. In this case I'd like 
the framework to tell me about it..

another issue might be, that the referrer hidden fields are not 
prefixed/namespaced..
Would it work to have multiple forms on one page now?
