Sebb commented on VALIDATOR-342:
--------------------------------

The method does indeed check the domain.
I don't know why this is not mentioned in the Javadoc.

What you appear to be asking for is a syntax check of a URL string, i.e. 
skipping the domain check.
The existing method could perhaps be extended to add another option to skip the 
check.

> URLValidator returns false for http://example.rocks
