Actually, I think I take that back. You want to actually skip certain fields if it is an insert or a delete. Making a method validation that returns false (fails) will stop all validation. You really probably want a dispatchMethodRequired validator and any other ones so they skip that validation if it shouldn't be checked. The other Validator methods kind of work like this with required. Everything else depends on required, but if you remove the dependecies all those methods, like mask, check if the field isn't blank before they perform the validation. If it is blank, mask returns true and doesn't really do anything.
