[Rt-devel] Opinions on adding CF validation to REST interface

[Philip Kime]

I'll have a look. One of the things I mentioned has to be implemented in
the REST code itself:

* If a SELECT* field is passed a value which isn't valid, it must raise
an error

This is obviously implemented in RT CORE because you can't select a
non-valid valid for such fields in the GUI. In REST, we have to actually
check because there's no GUI. But this isn't really part of the Regexp
validation, it's just related. I have this working in REST.

+1. Agree strongly.
