Konrad Windszus commented on SLING-4157:
----------------------------------------
Actually they are currently only found below the search paths and that does not
change with my pull request. Regarding protection I am not too sure. We would
come up with some naming scheme (derived from the resourceType of the validated
resource), but in my regard that is too much of a hassle. How are validation
models different from let's say OSGi configurations which could also be defined
in an arbitrary {{config}} folders in the repository?
> Allow Sling validation to pick up models in any location in the repository

> Key: SLING-4157
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-4157
> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Validation
> Reporter: Konrad Windszus
>
> Currently only validation models being defined below
> * /apps/sling/validation/models/ and
> * /libs/sling/validation/models/
> are picked up
> This is due to the XPath query containing the path restriction (in
> https://github.com/apache/sling/blob/trunk/contrib/validation/core/src/main/java/org/apache/sling/validation/impl/ValidationServiceImpl.java#L295).
> Similar to the JCR Repository based ResourceBundleProvider (
> http://sling.apache.org/site/internationalization-support.html) the
> validation models should be allowed everywhere in the repository (where apps
> should still have higher priority than libs). That should not have a major
> performance drawback.
> This is especially useful, if multiple different applications are deployed on
> the same Sling instance. To be able to distinguish their scripts and
> validation models in the repository (and to not overwrite other applications'
> models) it should be allowed that everything belonging to that one
> application is located below one common entry node (e.g.
> /apps/mycoolslingapp/)
