I'm personally not a fan of just throwing this into ALL validator plug-ins. Some just really aren't meant to ever be optional plus it's more code to maintain - and in the end does more 'logic' per plug-in and thus will be (maybe measurably?) slower to run.

Anyway, I can see how having the consistency might make it 'less error prone' on changes in the future if someone did start exposing one to settings. But half of these plug-ins don't have matching "optional" settings I believe, and thus this logic being implemented now "does nothing meaningful" because the plug-ins are never actually optional.

So I'd recommend just 'fixing' the ones that need fixing - instead of cluttering it across all plug-ins where it doesn't currently do anything useful. OR add them all to the customizable settings?

We are not making any new validator optional here, I suppose. We are just fixing the ones that already have optional tag in settings to propagate it to the publishing window so they are really optional.

Thanks, yes. Kayla just hit me up on discord in a PM as well mentioning these were already in the settings - in that case. Great fixing! 🧑‍🔧
