I am not disagreeing with you that it is a user error. But when validation fails the first priority for a developer will be to investigate why the validation failed. And currently if an `IllegalFormatException` occurs you might not be able to properly investigate the validation failure at all, but instead have to fix the format string, redeploy the application and then hope that you somehow can trigger the validation failure again. That is why I am proposing in this PR that the `IllegalFormatException` should be handled better, but _not_ be silently discarded. However, if I cannot convince you with that, then feel free to close this pull request. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
