I have added a config property to both the local and xa rars to allow the user to shut off validation in the matchManagedConnection method.

In the XSLT

a) Check for the existence of the <background-validation> element. If it exists
a1)Check for the existence of the <validate-on-match> element if it exists set the attribute ValidateOnMatch on the MCF to true. If not, false.

b)The element <background-validation> does not exist. The <validate-on-match> element is set to true.

I am not wild about this to tell the truth. What should happen is the values provided in the *-ds.xml file should determine whether or not validation should occur at all. For example, If no SQL or ValidConnectionChecker is provided, validation is meaningless and the value should be shut off. However, I am under some time constraints, though I plan to rethink a lot of this stuff once this 'feature' is complete.
