Kind of.  What I mean is that the HEM integration code is allowing Set
<ValidationMode>.  So our impl allows a value like "auto, ddl" or other
combos.  I am not able to grok why we allow multiples.

Also auto and callback are slightly different.  callback causes an error if
no bv provider is available whereas auto then skips validation.
