Input validation for multibyte is off

[gpersoon]

When you have an input field of bytes4, like in the following function:

pragma solidity ^0.5.0;
contract TestInput {  
      function Test(bytes4 x) external view returns(bytes4) {
         return x;
    }  
}

And then you enter "0x12", the input validator shows √ which indicates the input is ok. However when you press the arrow icon nothing happens:

Only when you enter 8 digits, like "0x12345678" you can use the arrow and the function is called.

interesting, that's weird. I'm actually quite surprised that bytes4 shows up like that.
Again something, that @ninabreznik would know a bit better and also what are the plans regarding this :-)

But good catch. thx :-)

@ninabreznik fixed at solidity-validator 0.5.0
