> "I'm looking at the createListValidator, and to my surprise passing in a list
> of (essentially) two empty elements "," validates, while a totally empty
> string "" does not. Apparently due to some underlying behavior of
> String.split."
> The string "," does return a String[0] from split. This should fail
> validation as if here were no elements as null, "", " " do possibly.
> But that kind of goes against or doesn't consider the ignore empty entries.
> I think the difference is whether or not you consider "," to be a list of two
> empty elements or an empty list.
> The current implementation with String.spilt() will produce an empty list.
> Is that correct?
