 * Hi once again,
 * this time i have a suggestion. You could add an setting for admins to have all
   the validation rules apply to their forms (admin panel). Now admin can add anything
   to validation fields and it’s ok (well at least in regex fields 😀 ). I think
   it would be a nice feature, especially for testing purposes.
 * Best regards
    Lukas

 * Normally, the forms on the frontend are validated for all users. In the backend,
   they are not validated for admin users. Are you suggesting there be a setting
   to make forms in the backend validate for admin users?
 * I thought this through originally, and the reason I set it up like this is because
   usually, when you’re testing validation, you’re doing that on a form on the frontend.
   On the backend, you want the freedom as an admin to enter any data you want.
 * If you need to test form validation on the backend, you can do that by logging
   in as an “editor”. I know that’s not convenient, but it is a good way to know
   how things work for an editor.
