So basically I can write code for how to validate a datatype which plugs into the validator depending on whether the validator is designed in such a modular manner and knows where to look for my code? 
 
So for some cases, it isn't as bad as having to hack the validator yourself but it's still doesn't interoperate very well.

	Each datatype can define a set of "parameters." So a datatype can define
	range facets by itself, then it can just reject anything that falls out
	of that range. Everything is up to datatypes.

	See attached zip file for an example. This "hex" datatype validates
	hexadecimal digits, and it comes with the "max" and "min" facets which
	allow you to restrict a range.
