Validate region #12

I'm using an address field but need my regions to all be consistent. This is tough since there's no validation on the field.

Ideally it would be a dropdown of US state, Canadian Provinces, etc. based on the country - but that obviously get tough to scale to other countries.

Maybe an easy alternative would be a fieldtype option where you could optionally define a regex pattern for each sub-field (postal code, region, etc) to validate against. Then at least you could enforce, e.g. ISO 3166-2

Hey Tim, I am very sorry I missed this when you first posted it. I was traveling at the time, and must have mis-filed the notification email. At the moment, I think the additional UI complexity of field-by-field regex validation is probably going to be such that I won't add it right now. I will definitely think on this though, and see if I can come up with some elegant solution to the validation problem. Dealing with international addresses is quite a pain, as it turns out!
