For Java projects, Spring IDE should show a warning when Spring cannot be found on the classpath. Message should say: "Cannot find Spring library on the classpath".
I have a patch for this, consider it for including.

Please be aware that if you include my patch then Spring IDE will require JDT to be present. Probably it is not a problem for most of the users, but this should be documented as an additional requirement for the plugin.

JDT is already a requirement for Spring IDE. Thanx for the hint

Does it make sense to implement this as a validation rule?

Yes, that would make sense, though I do not think it would fit into Beans Validator group or Web Flow group, I think another group would be more appropriate, maybe with name General or Other or Miscellaneous Validators. And I think it should be turned on by default.
