// Note 1:
// Look at the allowInvalid option in ngModelOptions and consider if you want to
// set allowInvalid to true for this directive. Using allowInvalid: true is recommended.
// ngModelOptions documentation: https://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng/directive/ngModelOptions
//
// Note 2:
// You might also want to use 'ng-model-options="{ allowInvalid: true }"' on the form
// controls you wish to validate in this directive because they may have individual
// validators of their own that will set their model to undefined when invalid.
//
// Alternatively, you could validate against the form control's $viewValue data,
// which would require you to parse the FormController properties to extract the
// $viewValue data for each form control.
