These items are on the TODO list for the 1.1 timeframe.
+ Client Side Validation. Add the ability to automatically generate
optional JavaScript code to perform client-side validations for things
like required fields, numeric fields, dates/times/timestamps, and so
on. The required validation should mesh with validation enhancements
provided in the controller servlet itself.
+ Standard Validations. Add the ability to configure standard
validations on particular properties to be enforced by the controller
servlet automatically. Where feasible, client-side JavaScript
validations may also be generated based on the same configuration
rules.
