The jmh-core-benchmarks/validation.jar is one of those hidden
non-advertised gems, and we run it only occasionally. In this particular
case, the last time we have run the validation.jar was before the change
in benchmark matching policy.

You are right we may anchor the benchmark names to overcome this. Also,
the code is missing the reasonable benchmark defaults. Fixed both now:
