Alex Savitsky commented on HV-35:
---------------------------------

"Everywhere" here means only two annotations - @NotEmpty and @Length, eveywhere else the field is either not a string, or the blank input doesn't fit the pattern. So I'll second the Mike's approach

> Frequently where an empty string is invalid so would " " be invalid.  I think  trim attribute added to @NotEmpty(trim=true) would be a simple and useful addition.
