Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
A clear and concise description of what the problem is. Ex. I'm always frustrated when [...]

Text Validation, It's widely used but needs to be re-programmed by the developer. If using HandyControl we could do validation while the user types{in Xaml}, that will save some time.

Describe the solution you'd like
A clear and concise description of what you want to happen.

<hc: TextBox Validation="*&%" ValSpace=False />

now this Text Box will not allow to put { * , & , % } or Spaces , and will show a blip like this.

Research direction

No file or test is named; start by reviewing HandyControl's WPF TextBox control and its XAML-facing properties, then compare the requested behavior with the existing tooltip approach. A complete result would define a validation syntax, reject configured characters or spaces while typing, and show the requested visual feedback.
