The toast component now watches page.props.errors and displays an error toast when validation errors exist.

Validation toast handling

Layer / File(s) Summary
Validation error watcher

A deep watcher observes page.props.errors. When error keys exist, it creates an error toast with a generic validation-failure message.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 0097a

Repeated validation failures can display duplicate error toasts, creating noisy feedback without blocking form submission. The issue is localized and suitable for a small follow-up fix.

Deduplicate validation toasts for repeated errors

Repeated invalid POST /forum requests return non-empty page.props.errors. The deep watcher calls addToast for each update, and addToast creates a new toast without deduplication. The template renders every toast, so the same validation failure can display duplicate notifications. Trigger the toast only on an empty-to-non-empty transition or deduplicate the handled error response.
