  • Improved speed / memory usage for empty row exclusion.
  • Checkbox field labels now follow the pattern '[field_label] (choice=[choice_label])'

  • Added skip_validation list to complement raw_cast.
  • Extends casting and validation to text fields validated with the BioPortal Ontology service.
