> Currently the {{Validator}} interface only gets the {{ValueMap}} on which the validation has been called (https://github.com/apache/sling/blob/trunk/bundles/extensions/validation/api/src/main/java/org/apache/sling/validation/Validator.java#L75). But sometimes this is not enough because more information need to be evaluated in the validator.
> For example the resource path or even the original resource is now completely inaccessible (except via weird workaround like casting to {{JcrPropertyMap}} and calling the deprecated {{getPath()}} on it). Therefore the validator should also get the resource on which the validation has been called originally (this must be {{null}} in case the validation has been triggered directly on a {{ValueMap}}). 
> That way it would be possible to e.g. get information about the container resource or get a Sling Model of that resource.
