[Rest2web-develop] Docs revision, "length" removal

[Nicola L. <ni...@te...>]

Completed revising configobj.txt, committed it in two steps: in the first
one there's only trailing spaces removal, the real changes are in the
second one. This way it may be easier reviewing the changes. Now I'm
looking at validate.txt .

I'd like to remove the "length" argument for lists (and strings). It's
redundant (one may set "min" and "max" to the same value), and probably it
isn't used often to warrant special-casing it.

Moreover, it prevents being able to write "list(1)" or "list(1,4)", forcing
explicit specification: "list(min=1)", "list(min=1, max=4)", and making it
incoherent with "integer" check definition.

What do you think?

PHP is such a load of crap, right down to the standard library, that it
creates a culture where it's acceptable to write horrible code. [...]
Maybe with PHP 5 they are trying to clean up the neighborhood, but that
doesn't change the fact when you program in PHP you are programming in
a dump. -- Ian Bicking, July 2005
