Thanks for the report, @cmahnke

Validation can be skipped during the write by pressing the 'skip validation' button on the screen.

Is there a particular reason why that function isn't a suitable alternative to a persistent flag?

It's inconvenient to redo it every time, why not having it configurable globally? Assuming that the configuration get's more accessible (#1174)
