Hey Adam, I really like https://airails.dev/, but I have two questions regarding the microprofile-server skill:

1. @Transactional is only allowed in the boundary layer
   If I have a boundary for bulk processing and I don’t want to roll back the entire bulk operation, I need to have @transactional in the control layer.
   The same applies for synchronous API calls in the control layer - I don’t want the API call to be part of the transaction.
   Am I missing something here? I used to set @Transactional in the control layer.

2. Never use quarkus-hibernate-validator
   Why is that? If I don’t use it, I’d have to implement all validation manually, which would lead to a lot of repetition.
   Or is the point simply to keep external dependencies to a minimum?
   What alternative would you recommend?
