insert length verification/format check in filetype

For custom created filetypes (like xml, regular expression or xml based ones) would be very useful to set some specific filetype constraints. 

i.e.:

- length control check (absolute or relative to source)

- regular expression controls between source and target (like checking the presence of a specific pattern in both source and target or raise an error if a specific character is present in target).

You can set these controls in QA, but sometimes you have different files in the same project and need to give translators specific limitations depending on the file type.

  • Patriku, the thing is that in real life the XML usually does NOT contain such information, but clients provide limitation requirements separately, e.g. in handoff instructions. And the requirements are usually like "length must not exceed the source", so the implementation should take in account such 'variable limits' as well, not only hard limits like "XY characters".
