Method Validator Ignores Null Values / Empty Strings about cbvalidation-docs HOT 5 OPEN

I think it makes sense. Things get blurry for me amigo once you have so many validators

Thanks @lmajano, so you recommend we leave them as is? Thus the method validator ignores nulls/empty, but the udf validator does not? Or do you propose we change them to be consistent?

Sounds good. I will run a few experiments and then create a PR. Stay tuned. :)

Created a PR to handle null/empty values that developers can switch to if the UDF validator will treat nulls as valid.
coldbox-modules/cbvalidation#80

Developers should switch to using requiredIf. I added some additional functionality for passing a UDF/closure to that validator as well here: coldbox-modules/cbvalidation#79

I still feel uneasy about implementing the change to the UDF validator, however I can't deny that it does make it more consistent with other validators.
