Hi Jason, Thanks for clarification. I understand importance of validation. We have trouble with duplicates, etc. We have few OrgUnits, and have mach more Data Elements say compared to India, so cases vary. Looking at all these I am thinking it would be better to have expandable System Settings, which would allow us to customize regex for each implementation providing default. This would allow to say translate or do not translate OrgUnits, validate or do not validate shortnames, etc instead of removing existing feature.

We have had a lot of discussion about this. https://blueprints.launchpad.net/dhis2/+spec/regex-validation I developed the blueprint in part from things that came up in Tajikistan while I was there, as well as from other places where the need for flexible in-field validation is required. It is a good point regarding the Cyrillic characters, where validation would likely need to happen on the server side, since Javascript is not well suited to validation of Unicode. Agree with the orgunit translation as well.
