Oliver Lietz commented on SLING-6578:
-------------------------------------
Instead of assuming service pid when simple string is given we can also create
a default filter expression (e.g.
{{(objectClass=org.apache.sling.validation.impl.validators.RegexValidator)}})
which is similar to current implementation expecting a class name.
> Use "service.pid" property instead of class name to reference validators

> Leveraging the component's "service.pid" property value instead of its
> classname is more stable (even if implementation changes, the PID might stay
> the same) and also allows for configuration factories to refer to a specific
> validator configuration. The fallback should be the property "component.name"
> as "service.pid" is not always necessarily set. Basically the validator
> should be referable via each of those value, i.e. one of the "service.pid"s
> or the "component.name".
