I think this can be done but there are many ways to validate against a group of elements. For instance, you can choose to validate against a concatenation of all the elements, this is useful for phone numbers. Or you can choose to validate against a sum of elements, this is useful for an invoice. Or you can choose to validate all group elements separately, this is useful for a first-lastname group. And there are probably others. How do you think this problem can be solved elegantly ? Bertrand Mansion Mamasam
