+ * This class overrides the browser's validation error bubbles, displaying custom
+ * error messages for invalid fields instead. To begin validating any form, add the
+ * class `gl-show-field-errors` to the form element, and ensure error messages are
+ * declared in each inputs' `title` attribute. If no title is declared for an invalid
+ * field the user attempts to submit, "This field is required." will be shown by default.
+ *
+ * Opt not to validate certain fields by adding the class `gl-field-error-ignore` to the input.
+ *
+ * Set a custom error anchor for error message to be injected after with the
+ * class `gl-field-error-anchor`
+ *
+ * Examples:
+ *
+ * Basic:
+ *
+ * <form class='gl-show-field-errors'>
+ * <input type='text' name='username' title='Username is required.'/>
+ * </form>
+ *
+ * Ignore specific inputs (e.g. UsernameValidator):
+ *
+ * <form class='gl-show-field-errors'>
+ * <div class="form-group>
+ * <input type='text' class='gl-field-errors-ignore' pattern='[a-zA-Z0-9-_]+'/>
+ * </div>
+ * <div class="form-group">
+ * <input type='text' name='username' title='Username is required.'/>
+ * </div>
+ * </form>
+ *
+ * Custom Error Anchor (allows error message to be injected after specified element):
+ *
+ * <form class='gl-show-field-errors'>
+ * <div class="form-group gl-field-error-anchor">
+ * <input type='text' name='username' title='Username is required.'/>
+ * // Error message typically injected here
+ * </div>
+ * // Error message now injected here
+ * </form>
+ *
+ * */
+
+ /*
+ * Regex Patterns in use:
+ *
+ * Only alphanumeric: : "[a-zA-Z0-9]+"
+ * No special characters : "[a-zA-Z0-9-_]+",
