validator element in faces-config should support nested attribute and property definitions
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: MYFACES-1892
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-1892
             Project: MyFaces Core
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: General
    Affects Versions: 1.2.3
            Reporter: Simon Kitching


As shown in this dtd:
  http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-facesconfig_1_1.dtd 

the validator element in a faces-config.xml file should support nested attribute and property elements:

<validator>
   <validator-id>xyValidtor</validator-name>
   <validator-class>com.xy.XyValidator</validator-class>
   <property>
      <property-name>length</property-name>
      <property-class>java.lang.Integer</property>
      <default-value>40</default-value>
   </property>
</validator> 

However this appears to never have been implemented in either 1.1.x or 1.2.x of core; only validator-id and validator-class are supported. Note that the equivalent feature exists for converters, and does appear to have been implemented.
