Tried to debug but couldn't find the reason. Has anybody an idea,
why _updating_ an existing dataset with the above mentioned
validator (which stores JSON) works as expected, but _creation_
of a new dataset (or resource) throws an error like this (from
the debugger):

    > /home/bunke/dev/edawax/ckanenv/src/ckan/ckan/logic/action/create.py(310)resource_create()
    -> errors = e.error_dict['resources'][-1]
    (Pdb) e.error_dict
    {'__junk': [u"The input field [('dara_authors', 1,
    u'authorID_Type'), ('dara_authors', 1, u'firstname'),
    ('dara_authors', 1, u'affil'), ('dara_authors', 1, u'lastname'),
    ('dara_authors', 0, u'firstname'), ('dara_authors', 0,
    u'authorID_Type'), ('dara_authors', 1, u'authorID'),
    ('dara_authors', 0, u'authorID'), ('dara_authors', 0,
    u'lastname'), ('dara_authors', 0, u'affil')] was not expected."]}
