    So, the scenario here is checking things that *were* valid when uploaded, 
but have been invalidated by external changes ( language changes ).  I would 
like to keep the magic specific.
    
    I think the functionality for the management functions is valid, but can we 
do that as a separate Jira/PR?  I'll do it, I just want to keep this tight.  If 
you create the jira and assign it to me that would be super.
    
    I would do the files on disk using the management functions as well.
    
    So we just need to think of the stellar interface for calling
    `VALIDATE`  with a string, and with a file path.  Also saying what 
configuration type it is.
    
    Does that make sense?
