Support for disallow_unknown_properties option, available both in the validate method and in the SchemaValidator contstructor. Set to True to prevent injection of unwanted property/value pairs in your document. Defaults to False.
While you can achieve similar results by setting 'additionalProperties = False', that only works for 'object' types and not for the 'array' type. When an array's 'items' property is set to a schema, it will accept any number of incoming dicts (objects) making sure that known fields match the schema, but still allowing for unknown/unmatched fields (the 'additionalItems' property will only block multiple array items).
Look at the test_disallow_unknown_properties.py module for usage examples.
PS: as an alternative (more verbose, perhaps more coherent) solution would be to provide an array property that does what 'additionalProperty = False' does for 'object' types. Since 'additionalItems' does something else already, maybe something like 'allowUnknownProperties'...
