Thank you. However, I would like to know the reason behind these rules (as I could infer
them reading the code for UsernameValidator). My original question was more about why
these rules are in place as opposed to what are they. In particular, are these rules
needed by other GateIn and/or eXo components? Can we remove all these rules without
issues?
Trong thanks for the start however Chris is right - we need to provide some context also.
I understand that it can be hard to track all requirements but if we provide users
configuration capabilities they need some clear info if those are hard constraints or not.
Basically we need to agree if putting less restrictive validation can cause issues on
JCR/DB level or not. What do you think?
