Validating fields added to User

openback

I see how to add fields to the User table, but I can't find how to attach validation to it as well. I was originally modifying the FirstLastNames plugin, but then found the ProfileExtender plugin in the 2.1 beta, and decided to go with that. For both, I can't seem to find where the callback would be to apply a simple regex to an added field. (And on a related note, this should be in the Developers category, no? How does one get into there?)

first off try searching for validation - searching has improved a bit on this forum.

these might help.

I see there's documentation on how to accomplish validations, but what I don't see is which callback to use to apply one to a user being created.
