Research direction

Start by tracing RequestValidator with the FlaskOpenAPIRequest and create_spec entry points shown in the issue. Check the existing documentation and tests for configuration that controls ServerNotFound validation, then establish whether body-only validation is supported and what a complete answer or change would require.

Description

area/validation/request kind/question

i noticed that if the URL in the request is not one of the listed URLs in the Spec, the validator throws an ServerNotFound exception.

Is there any config that I can pause to the validator to disable this check?
We want to use the validator only to validate the request body.

    spec = create_spec(spec_dict)
    openapi_request = FlaskOpenAPIRequest(request)
    validator = RequestValidator(spec)
    result = validator.validate(openapi_request)
