Add a button with class "cancel" and the validation plugin handles the cancellation. Cool. But maybe I'm confused. Wouldn't pressing a Cancel button NOT submit the form. Instead, it is implemented the opposite way, where clicking Cancel skips validation and submits the form directly. That seems nuts to me. A user clicks Cancel, no form submit should happen and user code should close the form or whatnot.

The code that submits the form is found on line 74

if ( validator.cancelSubmit ) {

validator.cancelSubmit = false;

return handle();

}

When it returns "handle()", that submits the form directly. Why doesn't it just return false?
