Hi all,

Validation constraints defined in Bean Validation 1.1 are mostly written and assigned in static manner. This limits us to reuse the existing constraints in value-driven manner. Could we add a new attribute 'executeCondition' to the constrain definition? 'executeCondition' would take an EL expression. A bean validation framework would need to evaluate the expression set in this attribute. The corresponding constraint logic only gets executed when the expression set for 'executeCondition' is satisfied at runtime.
