query-string boolean validation

[Legion112]

• Laravel Version: 6.16.0
• PHP Version: 7.4
• Database Driver & Version: does not matter

Description:

I have a queryString filter parameter filters[is_active]
I wanna define validation 'filters.is_active' => ['boolean']

But it does not work as expected when I pass parameter false it says The filters.is active field must be true or false.

Well I guess it does not work with query-string only with POST request ((|

I think we should change this behavior

Steps To Reproduce:

Create a route and define validation there

$this->validate($request, [
                'filters.is_active' => [
                    'nullable',
                    'boolean',
                ],
])

Send queryString filters[is_active]=false

@driesvints could you share the location where 'boolean' validation implementation is
I would like to take a look.
