> If an attribute is not mandatory, the validate() method of its AttributeDefinition will regard an invalid input the same as absent input. 
> For example, consider an optional integer attribute. For an input "abc", its validate() method returns "". This is a bit unfortunate as it can cause invalid data to be fed into the system.
