Hector Virgen writes @ fw-mvc:

If it's not too much to ask, can we have some consistency in the values for the constants in the Zend_Validate classes?

Some of them have the class name in the constant value, while others don't.

For example, Zend_Validate_StringLength::TOO_LONG is 'stringLengthTooLong', while Zend_Validate_Between::NOT_BETWEEN is 'notBetween'.

This probably wouldn't be a big issue but when creating validators for Zend_Filter_Input I find myself having to reference the API often to find the actual constant value when creating custom error messages:

$validators = array(
   'search'        => array(
   'presence'      => 'required',
   array('StringLength', 2, 96),
       'messages'      => array(
           array(
               'stringLengthTooShort' =>
                   'Your search query must be at least %min% characters in length.',
               'stringLengthTooLong' =>
                   'Your search query may not be greater than %max% characters in length.',
           )
       )
   )
)

Thank you.
