Hum, I don't think it makes sense to enforce this. The idea is that you can
chose to use either "getter":

    <getter name="foo">
        <valid/>
        <constraint annotation="javax.validation.constraints.NotNull"/>
    </getter>

or "method" (e.g. for an "action getter"):

    <method name="getFoo">
        <return-value>
            <valid/>
            <constraint annotation="javax.validation.constraints.NotNull"/>
        </return-value>
    </method>

as you like, but not both at the same time as they could conflict (similar
to that you must not have two "getter" elements with the same name).
