Anti spam honey pot

This solution seems bloated. If you really want to have a so called "honeypot field" in your form, all you have to do is add it, then in your form validation add a callback that checks it for any value. If the value is there then die(), redirect(), log_something(), whatever();

Then you would always need to add it manually and remember too use a callback or custom rule. My approach enables this with a simple true / false setting just like csrf protection. Field is auto added and validated so no chance you would forget a step. If you think this is bloated you probebly think the csrf approach is bloated?
