Nice, this should be useful for the Jobs View to validate that the URLs and ports are correctly formatted and reachable. FYI, https://mathiasbynens.be/demo/url-regex

> The view framework SPI exposes a new Validator interface that could optionally be implemented by the view developer. The Validator interface allows the view developer to define the validation logic that gets applied when a new view instance is created or updated. The interface specifies a svalidate method that is passed a ViewInstanceDefinition. The given view instance is the instance that is being created or updated. The validator has full access to the instance definition as well as the owning view definition so it can check things like parameters and properties. If the validator successfully validates the given instance it simply returns. If the validation fails then the validator should throw an ValidationException with a message that describes the failure.

> The context allows the framework a way to let the validator know at what point in the view instance lifecycle the validation is being performed.  If a validation fails during instance create (PRE_CREATE), the view framework will rollback the instance creation and will fail with an appropriate response (see below).  The same is true for instance update (PRE_UPDATE).  The validator (if specified) will also be called during a GET of view instance resources (EXISTING) and be reported back as properties of the resource in the normal response.

> So, for example, a view instance may have a 'server' property.  During instance creation (PRE_CREATE), the validator for the view might check the 'server' property for invalid characters and fail the create if found.  After an instance is created and a request to get the instance resource is made (EXISTING), the validator might check to see if the server specified by the 'server' property is actually reachable and fail the verify if not.  In this case the view instance resource is still reachable but the fact that the validation failed will show as a property in the instance resource (see below).
