[TYPO3-mvc] different validations for same model used twice in a single form

[typo3 at litedesigns.nl]

Hi Jochen,

Thanks for the suggestion, i will take a look at custom validators.

To be more clear about my model:

Company
|- FieldA
|- FieldB
|- Address (Model)
|- BillingAddress
   |- FieldC
   |- FieldD
   |- Address (Model)

And address:
Address
|- Street
|- Housenumber
|- City
|- Etc

Since both Company and BillingAddres have an Address, i want to validate
both  Address instances in my single form differently.

The Company->Address fields need to be required, the
BillingAddress->Address fields must be optional.

Another way to look at it would be like with an eCommerce website when a
customer registers or buys something:

Customer
|- Address
|- ShippingAddress

Where the Customer->Address is where the customer lives and the
ShippingAddress is where the products will be delivered.

I will report back my findings with the custom validators, although i'm
still not entirely sure how Company->Address fields can be set required
and the BillingAddress->Address fields optional. But as said, i will first
look into the custom validators :)

Kind regards,
Tim
