Hi thanks for your replies both of you!
Bill: Yes, It just seems a bit weird to add validation rules for
something that I don't plan on validating in code.
I.e text area, check box.
Brian: Thanks a lot!
This seems to do the trick, I was looking for a validation class I
could use for all fields.
Regards,
Bjarte

I solved this in my app by putting a validator (for those fields which
didn't need their own validation):
'*' => 'notEmpty',
array('field','names','here')
and then you can set an option for the input filter to allow for not
empty fields or flag the '*' as allowing no values.

The design of Zend_Filter_Input assumes that you do know the fields
that you are processing, and you should only use data that has been
both filtered and validated. Therefore one probably should never use
the getUnknown() method at all, except to detect inconsistencies
between the form input and the validation code (i.e. someone added a
field to the HTML form without adding it to the validation routine).
