[FLOW3-general] Validation of ElectronicAddress items

[Steffen Wickham]

Hi Christian,

thanks for your reply! I just spend some more hours on inverstigation
this issue but your reply still confirm what I figured out.
As you suggested, I put my validator to the framework package and it
simply works. But that's not the way I meant to code my packages. ;)

Because of my hard day I will open a ticket for this issue tomorrow.
Maybe I will try to find a proper solution for this by my own and share
it with all of you - just try to find a solution together. I will keep
the ticket open and up to date.

Thanks for your help!

Best wishes
Steffen
