Description

It would be nice to have a pre_validate decorator which could help initialize/process deserialized data on the schema context before the field validators are invoked. And maybe even a post_validate decorator too.

Research direction

Start by tracing how deserialized data reaches the schema context and when field validators are invoked. Define the expected behavior and ordering for a pre_validate decorator, and decide whether post_validate is in scope before identifying the relevant schema validation entry points and tests.
