+    This validator will be picked up automatically. The default configuration is to look at the bean name
+    and figure out what event you're interested in. This validator is interested in 'beforeSave' events
+    because the word 'beforeSave' appears in the first part of the bean name. It recognizes:
+
+      - beforeSave
+      - afterSave
+      - beforeDelete
+      - afterDelete
+      - beforeLinkSave
+      - afterLinkSave
+
+    What you put after that doesn't matter, you just need to make the bean name unique, of course.
