Imported from old tracking system. Originally raised P3 by mkent:

The bean validation support in the configuration module currently prints errors that look like this:

"Constraint violation with property prefix '': stringValue cannot be null (for class FooBarConfig)"

That's not very helpful if you're in operations and trying to work out which of the entries in your config.properties is wrong. Ideally, the constraint violations should be mapped to the property setting that caused the violation.
