    Assigning to Thomas as for he is maintainer of Zend_Date and does a lot of Zend_Validate stuff. Sorry if I shouldn't...

    As to what the issue itself is concerned, imho a minDate and maxDate would be better and more flexible.

    I thought about that, but I think breaking it down into the various parts makes it a little easier to configure. Still, min|maxDate could be added as well.

    Also, and this is a lot more complicated, parsing "-18 years" or "+30 days" could be useful.

    For me, past- and future date validation would be enough for now..

    Wow, does this count as a necro-ticket?

    I recommend using MF's DateRange object for validation.
