Is there a cleaner way to use the Validation class to check two fields to see if they are valid together?

At the moment I do something like the following:
Code:
$rules['username'] = 'trim|required';
$rules['password'] = 'trim|required|callback__check_combo|sha1';

function _check_combo($val)
{
  // There are some DB calls usually but for the sake of
  // simplicity im just going to type it out
  if ($this->input->post('username') == 'bob' && sha1($val) == 'cow')
    return TRUE;

  return FALSE;
}

I was wondering if there was a cleaner way to do this? Because atm I'm trusting the the username validation will be done first. And other than that, if there is a problem with username, it will still call the _check_combo function (as it should), but I don't want it to work this way.

Thank you
