Well, thanks from me to for now. Unfortunately, I guess I won't have
the time to look at it today - so it will have to wait until next year
:-/ But I'll definitely have a look at it then, being the one who
requested the feature in the first place ;-)

I'd say yes, we should keep it consistent.

Is that even possible? I'd guess it suffers from the same sub-classing
problems that are all over the place.

I guess it'd be useful for conditions for us, we don't have too many
validators. All in all, I'd say it would probably be useful and most
consistent if it was present for all types.

Merry christmas and a happy new year :-)
