Wizard UI Validator

Does anyone know the right site.xconf property syntax to register a UI Validator with the Affected/Resulting items step in the New Change Task wizard step? I keep getting errors when running xconfmanager -p with the following xml.

<service context="default" name="com.ptc.core.ui.validation.UIComponentValidator">
<option cardinality="duplicate" order="0" overridable="true"&lt;br"/> requestor="wt.change2.WTChangeActivity2"
selector="affectedAndResultingItemsStep"
serviceClass="com.steelcase.enterprise.change2.validators.ChangeMgmtCreateWizardsValidator" />
</service>

Bryan,
That was it! This kills me because of the following documentation inside of service.properties.xconf:

Services are specified using a <service> element which requires the name attribute (which corresponds to the
fourth field of the property name) and can optionally specify"
- a context attribute corresponding to the third field of the property name (defaults to "default" if not specified)
- a serviceProvider attribute (defaults to wt)
- a targetFile attribute (defaults to the targetFile specified on the root element of this XML file)

So I guess since I was adding this property to site.xconf there was no default targetFile in the root element... oops

Well...that was almost "it". The addition of the targetFile attribute allowed xconfmanager to complete without error however my validator is still not registered. I know this because I ran the "java com.ptc.core.ui.validation.UIComponentValidatorFactory affectedAndResultingItemsStep" command which told me that no validators were registered with the affectedAndResultingItemsStep. What else am I missing?

Here is what I used:
<property name="wt.services/svc/default/com.ptc.core.ui.validation.UIComponentValidator/renameDocumentWizard/null/0"&lt;br"/> overridable="true"
targetFile="codebase/com/ptc/windchill/enterprise/enterprise.service.properties"
value="customization.sap.SAPMMNameValidator/duplicate"/>
where renameDocumentWizard was the action.

This is with 9.1
