Related to ​http://trac.osgeo.org/geonetwork/wiki/PersistentValidationResults proposal (motion passed September 14th 2009 but not added to trunk).

Main differences with current proposal which:

• does not save validation report in DB (which depends on GUI languages). Only the validation status information is persistent.
• save the validation status for each type of validation (XSD, ISO, GeoNetwork, INSPIRE, profile specific schematron) and not the complete validation report
• add Lucene "valid" search criteria
• add geonet:info element for the validation status
• require to run the validation if user ask for the validation in view mode (the other proposal retrieve the validation report from the DB directly).
• does not add the validation icon to the search results
