 If you have custom patterns that are used several places in your code, you can extend the patterns with your own. And if you don't like the default implementation of one of the built-ins, you can override it.
 
+Remember to also provide a default error message for it.

 * Fixed undefined format function when calling one of the built in validators form within a method validator. Fixes #98
